[Samba] Creation of Domain- and PDC-SID in samba

[Michael Gasch]

just to get back to the topic:

isn't there a tool, which creates a unique sid for my new (test)domain, 
if i let the old NT PDC online for a while, like sidchanger for NT?

because i can't be sure that the sid i entered for the new domain 
"testevan" is unique

thx
