samba - Feb 2004 - Samba 3.0.2 uid filtering

All;
I'm running Samba 3.0.2 w/winbind on an LDAP server (for various reasons).
However, our NT PDC managers input the user IDs oddly. They come out looking
like:

-rwxr--r--   1 NORTHGRUM+tibberi 100000   45766615 Feb 17 10:05 Fonts.zip

Is there an (easy) way to filter those, to get rid of the
"NORTHGRUM+"?
Our NT admins add that as a way of identifying the network the user is on.

Thanks!

-Ric

To answer your specific question, you must take into account the fact that
there can be a user 'tibberi' in more than one domain. The only way
Samba
can provide unambiguous resolution of the user is by showning the domain
context that the user is in. Any other solution can result in flawed
operation.

Secondly, could it be that your group ID is not translating to the group
name because your system is running nscd (the name service caching
daemon)? If it is, you really ought to disable it as it will interfere
with winbind operations.
