Re: [Samba] File owner SID instead of name showing for one user
Hi, 1. Yes, ls -l shows the correct info. 2. Yes, only in Windows Explorer 3. Samba domain. I did some additional digging over the weekend and discovered that there are two other users whose SID's are showing instead of their names. Thanks again for any insight.

[Samba] File owner SID instead of name showing for one user
Hello, I recently migrated all data and user accounts from our old Samba file server to a new (Samba 3.4.0 on Unbuntu 9.10) one. Everything is working fine except that there is one user whose SID is showing in the Owner column of Windows Explorer instead of the user name. It's not a big problem, but the user is uncomfortable with it and I'd like to know why it's happening and how to fix it. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Also make sure that SID returned by wbinfo -n DOMAIN\name matches the name returned bywbinfo -s SID command.

Re: [Samba] File owner SID instead of name showing for one user
This occurs when Windows cannot find a user name for the SID. Identify which user is the real owner and change the Owner of the file to the real owner. If the owner actually does exist then it's probably missing the name attribute.

Re: [Samba] File owner SID instead of name showing for one user
Also make sure that SID returned by wbinfo -n DOMAIN\name matches the name returned bywbinfo -s SID command. Yeah...but that's a real puzzler, isn't it? Why the is the nsswitch/winbindd process getting a SID as a value for uid? I've seen it briefly when some process is lagging out. But I can't ever recall such a state being permanentOdd...something's nagging me about this, can't put my finger on it.

Re: [Samba] File owner SID instead of name showing for one user
Exactly. I checked 4 or 5 other users - no problems. Also did a spot-check of files belonging to other users in Windows Explorer. It appears this is the only user with the problem. I checked for duplicate UID's and found none. Using ls -l on the server returns the correct user name and UID for the files.
