unable to map SID

Hello,

I am sorry to come back to this again but I haven't gotten much of answer. I
realize a solution may not exist but I am more interested in finding out what
the actual problem is.

As described before I use w2kas as client machine to a Linux PDC(smb-2.2.2).
All works well except I cannot assign permissions on shares in w2kas. The
process always stalls and the log gets filled with the following message:

[2001/10/14 07:02:59, 0] smbd/posix_acls.c:create_canon_ace_lists(747)
  create_canon_ace_lists: unable to map SID
S-1-5-21-2274180574-1372678260-942134435-3005 to uid or gid.

Now where lies the problem?

- hardware
- my distribution (suse 7.2)
- w2kadvanced server
- samba code
- my compile of smb without a module (unknown to me) necessary to do the
mapping
- missing implementation of a SID map check in samba code when a mapping fails

Is this being worked on? Is this a valid bug?
