Well, I wouldn't rename an existing one if that's what you're asking. That
metadata is also held on any clients that have installed the package. But a
GUID by definition is meant to be unique and its completely different from a
SID that would identify a group. If a GUID weren't unique, that would cause
problems of course.

I thought it might be, but can anyone say for sure? I don't have a test AD
and I think there may be repercussions if I screw the live one :)

Ian-

 

The AAS filename is just randomly created AFAIK.

I have progressed somewhat with my deployment-preparation script. The
question I have now concerns the name of the advertising script (.AAS file)
which gets created in SysVol\[domain]\Policies\ [GPO_GUID]
\User\Applications

 

It's named as [some_GUID].AAS and my question is, is the GUID derived from
something (e.g. assigned Group's GUID?) or is it just a randomly-created
GUID?
