Profile folder name generation / Oomph RSE pre-config [message #1858069]

As part of an Oomph provisioning project I've been doing, I wanted to provide a number of pre-defined remote server connections so users wouldn't need to create these manually.

I've found RSE will present these connections if Oomph created a bare number of files under .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.rse.core/profiles/PRF.<hostname>_28

This has worked well for the majority of people, however, I seem to have a problem with one Windows user, which seems to be down to the '_28' used in the folder name, rather their wants '_3076'. Because the the wrong number is used here their Eclipse wipes all RSE host connections & their configs on startup. As soon as the 'PRF.<hostname>_28' folder is removed, it starts working again.

What are these _28/_3076 numbers (on mac it seems to be _263)? How are they generated? How can I decide which one to use in Oomph? Is there a better way to pre-configure RSE hosts than creating config files in a folder I can't be sure of the name of?

Thank you in advance for any help!
