I ran into this a few weeks ago when applying permissions to terminal
server protocol connections.
Found that the problem was the DC's in the domain had a corrupted AD
replica on it and some of the DC's in the site weren't replicating
correctly, so when the terminal server booted and if the DC it connected
to to join the machine to the domain happened to be the one which had
the corrupted replica on it it would thrown up the GUID of the user
account instead.
Ended up running the MPS reporting tools (which have DCDiag, Netdiag
amongst a pile of other useful reporting tools) for AD and found some
weird issues with the replication and fixed that. Rebooted the DC's and
hey presto problem went away.

Subject: [windows2000] Weird 2003 Server issue
Hey Guys!
We're experiencing a very weird Windows 2003 Server problem here. We
have an IBM HS40 BladeCenter that we just built brand new Windows 2003
Server images on them. When we try to add a group from the domain the
local admin group, when we hit apply, it wipes out the group name and
replaces it with a SID, and anyone in that group can't log in. They get
a message that the domain controller is down or can't be contacted. The
DC's are 2003 Server as well. We even rebuilt one of the boxes from
scratch. Also this is a separate domain from our primary domain, set up
for a lab environment.
Has anyone seen this and/or know what's going on??
Thanks!!
Jennifer
