I am struggling with an issue setting up a new NFS client. We are using NFSv4.

The old NFS client is Red Hat 5 and I am replacing it with an Oracle Linux 7.3 box.

All of the NFS exporting has been done on the server side, and I am able to mound the remote directories. I'ver performed exportfs -a and restarted the nfsserver service afterwards.

The issue is, if I look at my old NFS client box, it shows all of the user:group owner as the nobody-user and nobody-group. When I mount the same share on my new NFS client, it is not mounting with the nobody-user and nobody-group owners (which is what I want). In the output below, the "old-nfsclient" has the desired behavior. Setgid is set on the "output" directory though I am not sure that factors in.

If I look at /proc/fs/nfs/exports, it shows both have the "root_squash" flag set. I've tried to switch to all_squash but then I get "access denied" when trying to mount.

My /etc/idmapd.config file has my DOMAIN set properly as well as the entries for nobody-user/group.

The anonuid and anongid is set on the NFS server. Those UID's match the same account and group on the NFS client.

old-nfsclient /etc/fstab

nfs-server01.ourdomain.com:/ /mnt/BDEVLT/output nfs4 defaults 0 0

new-nfsclient /etc/fstab

nfs-server01.ourdomain.com:/ /mnt/BDEVLT/output nfs4 defaults 0 0

Any help is appreciated.

I've changed paths for obfuscation so please ignore path typos, I am sure those are all set properly.
