RHEL 7.1 autofs permissions do not match NFS servers
RHEL 7.1 client using autofs to mount a NIS map of home directories being exported by a Solaris 10x86 nfs server.

The owner and group are correct on the NFS server, but on the RHEL client, the owner and group end up being nobody nobody. The USERS and GROUPS are NIS maps as well. They are correct uid/gid.

Still can read and write, but this affects oracle NIS user owner/group as well.

whats happening to the translation of user and groups and how to correct it?

Unless you want to use NFSv4, you can enforce NFSv3 on the NFS server
via https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01...sadmin-68.html,
or you request NFSv3 on the NFS client, e.g. via map option in auto.master:
Code:
/mymapmount auto.mymap -vers=3,retry=1

Ok thanks. I guess I need to be more clear.

The NFS server home directory uid and gid is not propagating to the RHEL 7.1 Client. only nobody:nobody is being set.

Figured it out. IT has to do with the NFSV4 from the Solaris host. You have to set the client idmapd.conf nfsdomain field to be the same DOMAIN as the RHEL client, or simply mount the CLient as Version3.
