folder permissions show only SID not user name

When you go to add a user to a folder permission list,
the user that are already listed show up as a SID not the
user or group name.
 
Probably the machine was removed from a domain. If the SID can't be
resolved into a user name, the SID is shown instead.
 
Thanks everyone, article 262958 did the trick.

See the following KB link. I would also run netdiag on the computer to make sure it
is communicating with the domain controller [assuming it is in a domain]. It may be
dns problem. For a domain computer, always make sure that the domain member is
configure to ONLY use AD domain controllers as it's dns server. --- Steve
