Trouble using whoami and others


Don't know how to fix this problem;
I or another user types 'whoami' and get this responce:

whoami: cannot find username for UID 500

Exactelly how do I go about fixing this problem?
Obviously the user has a username, it's NT. No username, no access. But why
isn't the whoami application (among others) picking that information up?
Any help would be terrific, and thanks...
