[Samba] kpasswd_samdb_set_password: domain\user (S-...) is changing password of user at domain

[Bill Baird]

Is there a way to translate the userSid into a human readable format, so I
don't have to look it up each time?

For now, my workaround for now is to set my log level to 5, but then turn
lots of stuff down to 1 manually. Like this:

log level = 5 tdb:1 printdrivers:1 lanman:1 smb:1 rpc_parse:1 rpc_srv:1
rpc_cli:1 passdb:1 sam:1 auth:1 winbind:1 vfs:1 idmap:1 quota:1 acls:1
locking:1 msdfs:1  dmapi:1 registry:1 scavenger:1  dns:1 ldb:1 tevent:1
auth_audit:5 auth_json_audit:5 kerberos:1 drs_repl:1 smb2:1 smb2_credits:1
dsdb_audit:5 dsdb_json_audit:5 dsdb_password_audit:5
dsdb_password_json_audit:5 dsdb_transaction_audit:5
dsdb_transaction_json_audit:5 dsdb_group_audit:5 dsdb_group_json_audit:5
