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?

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.

nfsstat(8)						      System Manager's Manual							nfsstat(8)

NAME

       nfsstat - Network File System statistics

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/nfsstat [-i interval] [-23cnsrz] [system]

OPTIONS

       Displays  summary information at the specified interval.  Displays client NFS and RPC information, unless otherwise specified by either the
       -n or -r option.  Displays server NFS and RPC information, unless otherwise specified by either the -n or -r option.  Displays  NFS  client
       and server information, unless otherwise specified by either the -c or -s option.  Displays RPC information for the client and server side,
       unless otherwise specified by either the -c or -s option.  Specifies NFS version 2 statistics when specified with the -n option. If neither
       the  -2	nor  -3  option is specified, version 2 and version 3 statistics are displayed.  Specifies NFS version 3 statistics when specified
       with the -n option. If neither the -2 nor -3 option is specified, version 2 and version 3 statistics are displayed.  Reinitializes  statis-
       tics. Used to set NFS client/server or RPC client/server statistics to zero. You must be logged in as superuser to use this command.

DESCRIPTION

       The  nfsstat command displays statistical information about the Network File System (NFS) and Remote Procedure Call (RPC) interfaces in the
       kernel (by reading /dev/kmem).  It can also be used to reinitialize this information. If no options are given, nfsstat displays both server
       RPC and NFS version 2 and version 3 information, and client RPC and NFS version 2 and version 3 information.

       The system argument specifies the file containing the system's name list.  Otherwise, /vmunix is used.

FILES

       Specifies the kernel memory.
