4.A.1 MS-DTYP #

The SID type defined in this document derives from the Microsoft Data Types specification (MS-DTYP), §2.4.2. The Peios binary encoding is identical to the MS-DTYP packet representation, and the string form follows the same S-R-I-S convention. The structure itself originates in Windows NT, where it has been the principal identity primitive since NT 3.1.
