You didn't add a MFT: header, but since the standard is to CC the

From the linux exports manpage:
In addition to this, nfsd lets you specify arbitrary uids and
gids that should be mapped to user nobody as well. Finally, you
can map all user requests to the anonymous uid by specifying the
all_squash option.
Get rid of the all_squash flag. Non-root users are not allowed to use
chown.
