SID, Win2k SP2 and profiles

Hi

Have seen some reports of peolpe having problems with profiles on win2k
with SP2 and I have seen some people describing problems resolving SIDs. 

I have just upgraded some of our workstations to SP2 and now people cannot
read their profiles when logging on to the workstations. 

In the log I see:

[2001/08/14 15:52:43, 0] smbd/posix_acls.c:create_canon_ace_lists(747)
  create_canon_ace_lists: unable to map SID

Data/Identities/{70E14BC0-FE2D-4718-8C27-C49F7670B0C1}. Error was No such
file or directory

which seems strange as the directories all are there and readable by the
user logging on. Therefore I find it easy to blame the first line stating
that samba cannot map the SID. 

I can't find any solution to this problem in the mailinglists nor in cvs
comments although I can see that some people have had similar problems.

I'm running 2.2.1a on Solaris in a production environment, so I would
really appreciate is someone could give me a hint. (Im' have security =
domain, password server = * and a win2k server running as DC.)

If you need more info I can set up a test-server and give you more debug
info, but I cannot debug on my production server.

Regards
