[Lustre-discuss] l_getgroups: no such user

We are getting a bunch of:

l_getgroups: no such user ######

in our log files on the mds.
We keep our /etc/passswd and /etc/group in sync with the clusters  
that mount it.  Only one visulization workstation has users who are  
not in its list.

Problem is I don't see any files owned by those users on the filesystem

find . -uid #####

Finds nothing,
Does lustre check if a user just cd's to that directory?  Or is it  
for any user that logs in?
Is it safe to ignore these messages for non cluster users?
