security tab only shows sid

I have a server that is running windows storage server 2008r2 that I am moving allot of data to.
I have two folders on the same drive, one called departments and the other is user.
Department has subfolder  for all departmental shared data and the users contain the users home folder. We turned off UAC which required a reboot, after the reboot user were able to access their home folders but no one could access any department shares. When I look at the security on all the share foldesr under department the security showed local Admin, Domain Admin and system, the entry for the groups was just a SID. I went thru all the shared folders and delete the SID entry and reassigned security for groups on all the shared folder. does anyone know why this happened, I still have allot of data to move and a lot more shared folders to create and this server will need to be rebooted when any updates are applied and I do not want to have this issue again. any help would be appreciated

Were there any changes to the group during this time.  This usually happens when the user or group have been renamed or re-created, causing the SID to change.

no changes to the group, just a reboot
