[Discuss] Numeric UID shows up in ps -ef not alpha

[Jerry Feldman]

I've got an issue at work where a ps -ef shows the numeric uid rather 
than the user name:
sburtt   22801 22800  0 13:50 pts/12   00:00:00 -bash
40162    23945 23910  0 14:19 ?        00:00:00 sshd: aviva_cwm at pts/17
40162    23946 23945  0 14:19 pts/17   00:00:00 -tcsh
40162    23964 23946  0 14:19 pts/17   00:00:00 ps -ef

We are using LDAP for network authentication.

  this case the user is using sudo to get into that account.
