[. . . ] Upon image deployment, you must create a unique System ID (SID) for each XPe-based machine to prevent security vulnerabilities. To accomplish this, a utility called SIDGen is provided with Deployment Solution that you can install on the thin client with the Aclient Deployment Solution agent. This document outlines the steps to install SIDGen on an XPe-based thin client and handle the Microsoft Enhanced Write Filter (EWF) correctly. [. . . ] Future Windows XP Embedded images for the BGW Compaq t5000 thin client series will preinstall the SIDGen utility. Installing SIDGen on an XPe-based BGW Compaq t5000 thin client The following steps show the correct procedure for installing Altiris SIDGen on an XPe-based t5000 series thin client. Upon completing these steps, any Deployment Solution Capture or Deploy image job will automatically create a unique SID on the target unit.

Executing Altiris SIDGen Utility You can execute the Altiris SIDGen utility in several different ways. The most common execution allows the utility to run silently within a Deployment Solution imaging job. If the SIDGen utility is present in the same folder as the Aclient on the client, the utility automatically executes during the Post Configuration Task without user interaction or knowledge. Use this method with Deployment Solution 6. 1 SP1 Hotfix C or later or Deployment Solution 6. 5, which resolves cleanup failures.
