    I am experiencing the same problem. I have 2 Windows 2000 Servers SP4 as
    member servers in a Windows 2003 domain that show only SID's for domain user
    accounts in local groups like Administrators and Users but show the names of
    local user accounts. I can pull up a list of domain members fine and add a
    domain user to the group but their SID only displays. I checked that DNS
    was set to an internal DNS/DC server and the nltest command was successful
    to the DC. The only other thing I can think of is that there are 2 NIC's in
    the servers so maybe something is screwy with routing or the configuration
    of the other NIC not on our production network is causing problems.

    Any ideas?
