Is there a way for a FreeBSD (I'm running release 4.2) NFS server to present a different uid/gid pair than what is on the server? For example, on the server, the directory I am exporting is owned by uid/gid: 1001/1000. When I mount it on clientA, I would like clientA to see that it is owned by uid/gid: 500/100, but say if I mount it on clientB, I would like it to see a uid/gid: 200/10. These uid/gid mapping pairs would be predefined and fixed by the ip of the client. Someone has suggested I look at mount_umap, but he also noted that in the man page it says: THIS FILESYSTEM TYPE IS NOT YET FULLY SUPPORTED (READ: IT DOESN'T WORK) AND USING IT MAY, IN FACT, DESTROY DATA ON YOUR SYSTEM.
