Second: you should first establish that your problem is well defined and solvable. Only then you should worry about solving it in Perl.

Why the hell do you want the SIDs to be identical? This only makes sense if there are resources on the new server with ACL entries pointing to those SIDs. But as they are local groups, this is very strange.

If you want to update the server, clone the old disk and make an update to Win2003. If something goes wrong run from the cloned disk.

This is OT here, you will get better help in one of the Microsoft groups.
