            Bug ID: 3953
           Summary: SFTP ls -n displays username/groupname instead of
                    numeric UID/GID after users-groups-by-id extension
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 10.2p1
          Hardware: 68k
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: sftp
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: tamileceguru at gmail.com

The SFTP client's ls -n command fails to display numeric UID/GID values
when the server supports the users-groups-by-id at openssh.com extension
(introduced in OpenSSH 9.1, commit 74b77f7). Instead, it displays
username and groupname strings, breaking the expected behavior of the
-n flag.

Expected Behavior
When using ls -n in SFTP, the output should display numeric UID and GID
values:

-rw-r--r--   1 1000     1000         1234 Jan 15 10:30 file.txt

Actual Behavior
After OpenSSH 9.1, ls -n displays username and groupname strings:

-rw-r--r--   1 username groupname    1234 Jan 15 10:30 file.txt
