SolutionYou might also have a look at your nsswitch.conf file. If you have passwd and group set to 'compat' then I think it may cause an issue like this.

pwck
grpck
The normal cause of this is a problem in those files.
If you are running an ignite golden image, these files are temporarily messed with and this problem goes away after a short time.

Re: Owner and group ids on the entire system are showing numbers.
I'll also assume that the mode (permissions) of both /etc/passwd and /etc/group are 444. (-r--r--r--).
1) Check to make sure that /var (/var/tmp if a separate filesystem) is not full.
2) cd /sbin/init.d
./pwgr stop
Now see if your UID's and GID's properly map via ls -l.
If all is well the the passwd/group caching daemon (pwgrd) has become confused. This will only certainly happen if /var filled up so that if failed to write its temporary files. You can restart pwgrd via /sbin/init.d/pwgr start or you can edit the config file in /etc/rc.config.d/ so that this daemon does not start. UNIX boxes ran for many years w/o this "luxury" and yours will work just fine w/o it as well.

./pwgr stop did the trick.
