Right, i misunderstood metze's suggestion to copy samdb.set_invocation_id
and do the same with objectGUID

If i understood creating object guid during provision is bad idea, right?
The thing is that I need it in samdb_rodc, where i switched from using invocationID to objectGUID.
To answer amIRODC i need the NTDS entry for our server from the db and read the msDS-isRODC attribute, which is constructed btw.
Are there other options to do that, but using objectGUID to get the NTDS settings?

Anatoliy
