XPE Unknown group or user name

[Brian]

when i build my xpe image all files on the drive have a current owner
of
"S-1-5-21-1061785554-209985488-1732307468-1150"

thus when i log in as administrator over the network i do not
have access to delete or modify any files.

if i delete the file locally and then copy them over the network i now
have an owner "client (boxname\administrator)"

which gives me the correct permissions to modify these files

1) where does this user name come from
2) is there a setting when i build my image or
3) a program i can use to change the owner of these files

Brian,

If you see directly the SID when you check Owner, the possible reason is that the account name can't be looked up. E.g. when the
account has been
deleted or when the machine used to belong to a domain but does not any more.
I'd suppose that the SID you mentioned is your local Admin account that you have most likely included in to your image.
I am not sure when you say "log in as administrator over the network" - do you log on in to a domain account?
You can always provide enough permission to the account you need the access from or by changing the ownership of the objects.

So, in attempt to answer your questions:
1) I think, your local Admin account
2) "Administrator account" component
3) Use GUI or console tools (Resource Kit) like cacls.exe, perms.exe.
