I am using ghost pe 2002. Can I use 1 recovery CD for 5 different computers? They have different hardware. How can I reset the SID?
 
you can reset the SID manually as well by not joining the domain after you login. You can login locally as administrator, and remove the network adapter - then reinstall it normally.

It will obtain the correct unique SID at that point, and you can use the network wizard to then join each computer to the Domain. Just be SURE you dont have that NIC cable attached when you bring those computers up locally.

Ghostwalker is easy to use, but i find this method quicker and easier on the nerves ;) It's a guaranteed unique join that requires nothing more than the default tools Windows provides.

Maybe try both, and just choose whatever solution works best for ya? Good luck eiher way.
