Chris-
Sounds like a big mess. You are probably looking at SIDs because the
associations/mappings were lost. You will need to reconfigure the security
by adding the users and permissions again.
My recommendations:
1. Change the main folder to share to Authenticated Users and keep read
only.
2. The subfolders don't need to inherit in this case. Instead, manually
specify the permissions you need and uncheck the inherit box.
3. Instead of adding users to each of the folder permissions, you should
create some local groups that can contain the users. For instance, create a
"Sales" group and give the "Sales" group rights to a subfolder.
Based on the information you provided, it sounds like you'll have to be
assigning permissions all over again.
