I meant "how can you from the uid choose the SID from all > those SIDs mapping to this uid"? You can't, but that's not needed, since, as I wrote earlier, such situations happen on Unix as well, and so Posix programs don't expect unique uid's. What I meant was that you can correctly map a SID to a user or group name, even if some users/groups are not from the local machine (e.g., because some of the files are remote files given in the \\server\share\foo UNC format).
