[Samba] Update -- Username to SID translation on Security Tab

[Buchan Milne]

Where does the LDAP come in? Are you using both LDAP and winbind? This 
probably isn't going to work, since you will get different uid's from 
LDAP than from winbind.

Or am I missing something?

Try 'getent passwd|grep $USER' (not 'getent passwd $USER', which will 
only give you the first entry returned), if you get more than one entry, 
and if the uid/gid differs, you are going to have problems.
