I have a few systems on site which have common users installed with "wrong" UID values from the rest of the machines, and particularly those installed from a "live" CD which created one or more odd IDs when "install to disk" was used. I remember using "UID mapping tables" to cause an NFS access from "joe" on the client to use the UID of "joe" in the request sent to the NFS server. I can't recall if that was in Linux, or some other OS, I was supporting Xenix, AIX, Solaris, SunOS, and HP-UX at the time. Oh, and Dell's brief jump into SV5r4 on PC. If this is supported it would be miles easier than shuffling the UIDs on the clients, obviously. I though there was a mount option but I don't see it, and it's been a good decade since I did this and I can't remember details. I thought I was remembering the map_static option, but it is not recognized in exports, not are map_daemon or no_map_identity.
