how to determine SID

[jg]

how to determine the SID of an XP Pro user ?

I need to fix up /customize his profile from admin. If I know the SID I can
use script to set his user shell under hkey_users without logging in his
ID. even make changes the user can't make

Lists the SIDs for all the user accounts and places SID.txt on the Desktop.
