Hello,

Since I do not want to update '/etc/passwd' each time the SID changes (sysprep 
deployment for example), I wanted to know if I can modify my /etc/passwd like this:

Administrator:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:544:544:U-Administrator,S-1-5-32-544:/home/Administrator:/bin/bash

Or assign any other well know SID to the user ? S-1-5-18 ?

Sshd seems to work well, but does it have any side effects on cygwin and windows?

Regards,
