Hmm.. 
it might be that /etc/passwd is missing in the target.
You get one there by running
[sbox-yourhosttarget: ~] > sb-conf install --etc
or by selecting etc by using sb-menu

Command
[sbox-yourhosttarget: ~] > getent passwd mplourde
should work, and if the perl is not broken, then 
[sbox-yourhosttarget: ~] > perl -e '@_=getpwnam("mplourde"); print "$_[2]\n"'
should work also.
