    The GUID (similar to SID, but more advanced), used in win2k domains, is assigned, or more appropriately: created during the addition of a PC to a domain. It isn’t like the MAC of a NIC, that is part of the hardware before Windows is even introduced.

    What use would you have of this information, and for that matter why would you need it to perform remote administration...?
