There are several forum posts that may or may not match your scenario. Do a search for "Could not fetch our SID" and report back if any of the suggestions fix it or if any of the reported bugs match it.

I Searched for "Could not fetch our SID" and all the treads that people opened all the same Problem like mine, BUT NOT EVEN ONE OF THEM HAVE A SOLUTION!!!! OR SUCCEEDED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM!.
SO DEAR FREENAS PROGRAMMERS AND ENGINEERS DO SOMETHING WITH THIS ISSUE!/PROBLEM!.

 

[dlavigne]

No need to shout. Is your issue related to https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/3472 (e.g. a space in admin name)? If not, was there another bug that described your issue? If not, did you create a bug report and post the issue number here?

 

[Tzvi]

I"m not shout!, look, idon't know how this forum works but it seems like it doesn"t work!.
My issue very similar to that bug 3472.
What you mean when you ask if i have spaces in admin user?
My user admin is: admin
And the password: Password+numbers.
For your quetion about ( was there another bug that describe my issue?) what you mean by that?.
For your quetion if i create bug report the answer is no.
I will create but when the freenas guys will start to work on this bug? In next week next month or what ever.
I can't wait we are television company in israel and i have production server to up i don't have much time!.
I understand that it is a free program but if i have no support and the forum not helping i will search for other solutions!.

Hi Tzvi, this forum does work well... mostly ;) There are some very knowledgeable and extremely helpful people here. However, especially due to the nature of Freenas being, well, free, there are lots of idiots like me who know just about enough to get it working but can't really offer lots of help.

What I would say about AD is that lots of people seem to have trouble with it, but it is usually down to a configuration issue. I spent many hours making my brain hurt, only to discover that my freenas server system hostname and samba hostname didn't match... which doesn't work. The AD integration works pretty well, although some of the UI is broken for permissions (hopefully that will be fixed in the next release). The problem is the errors you get are often not very helpful or indicative of the actual problem.

Double and triple check your configuration, make absolutely sure everything is correct, across the entire config (make sure your clocks match) and chances are it'll work. Also worth saying that a few things in Freenas require a reboot, which in itself is annoying, but the reality.
