testparm on smb.conf is fine:

This is wrong for security = server.  What version
are you running ?  I'd also suggest security = domain
instead.

We run samba 3.0.23a. Looking at smb.conf man pages, maybe you are right. Security = server has worked great for us for years, and it still works fine in older versions of samba. We don't want our samba servers to be domain members, we just want them to auth to an NT4 PDC. That's what I thought security = server was supposed to do. But maybe a switch to security = domain will fix our SID problems.

What is odd is that the samba server that does NOT have this SID problem (RHEL3-AS x86, running the stock redhat RPM [samba-3.0.9-1.3E.10]) also reports back a testparm of the same thing:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# testparm
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
Loaded services file OK.
Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_MEMBER

The smb.conf here is:

[global]
   server string = Samba server
   interfaces = xxxxx
   wins server = xxxxx
   domain master = no
   domain logons = no
   preferred master = no
   netbios name = hostname
   announce version = 1.0
   getwd cache = yes
   wide links = yes
   preserve case = yes
   load printers = no
   password level = 8
   security = server
   password server = IP of NT4 PDC
   workgroup = DUDESDOMAIN
   time server = no
   #status = yes
   encrypt passwords = yes
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY
   hosts allow = xxxxxxx
   log file = /var/log/samba/hostname-samba.log
   max log size = 0
   socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
