Thank you for your reply.

My Windows server is the Server for NFS and the client is the Linux1 which has the Windows share mounted. Your instructions relates if the Windows server is the client. Can it still be done as a Windows being the NFS server?

---------- Post updated at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous update was at 03:38 PM ----------

Browsing the registry in Windows, I found the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ServerforNFS\CurrentVersion\Exports\0

Changing the RestrictChown from value 0 to 1 may do the trick. It will restrict any changes to the ownership but allowing changes to the NFS share. I'll need to reboot the server and see if it works.

I also had the problem that the rsync not only caused the change of ownership but wiped the permissions completely. It may fix that problem as well.

dfmounts_nfs(1M)					  System Administration Commands					  dfmounts_nfs(1M)

NAME

       dfmounts_nfs - display mounted NFS resource information

SYNOPSIS

       dfmounts [-F nfs] [-h] [server]...

DESCRIPTION

       dfmounts  shows	the local resources shared through  NFS, along with the list of clients that have mounted the resource. The -F flag may be
       omitted if  NFS is the only file system type listed in the file	/etc/dfs/fstypes.

       dfmounts without options, displays all remote resources mounted on the local system, regardless of file system type.

       The output of dfmounts consists of an optional header line (suppressed with the -h flag) followed by a list of lines containing whitespace-
       separated fields.  For each resource, the fields are:

	 resource server pathname clients ...

       where

       resource    Does not apply to  NFS. Printed as a hyphen (-).

       server	   Specifies the system from which the resource was mounted.

       pathname    Specifies the pathname that must be given to the share(1M) command.

       clients	   Is a comma-separated list of systems that have mounted the resource.

OPTIONS

       -F nfs	 Specifies the nfs-FSType.

       -h	 Suppress header line in output.

       server	 Displays  information	about the resources mounted from each server, where server can be any system on the network.  If no server
		 is specified, the server is assumed to be the local system.

FILES

       /etc/dfs/fstypes
