samba - Oct 2017 - string_to_sid: SID .... is not in a valid format - Any clue?

Hi,

I do get a lot of „string_to_sid: SID .... is not in a valid format“  in our
samba 4.6.x Logs. What might be wrong or what might I check. Users can login to
the domain and we don’t see any problem on the user / client side …

Thanks for suggestion and hints . Regards . Götz

Hi,

It may just be a spurious debug message. We fixed another recently in a 
similar area. Can you describe the format of the info you removed with 
the ....? That way we can see what might be feeding this function with 
invalid input.

Cheers,

Garming

Hi,

the „…“ are user-IDs and @group.
