Re: NFS mount on Solaris 10 from NetApp server - Ownership issues

I'm trying to mount a NetApp share containing users home directories on
a new Solaris 10 (sparc) server.

If we do the mount using the system defaults (i.e. v4,proto=tcp) all the
files end up owned by UID & GID 60001.

On the other hand, if we mount using "-o proto=udp" the file ownership
is correct, but we run into file locking issues.

We've been experiencing similar problems. It seems to be the result
of a NFSV4 domain mismatch. At the moment, we've fixed it by
disabling NFSV4 on the Netapp. We do have the NFSV4 domain set on the
Netapp to what we believe is the same one chosen by Solaris clients.
By default, it's set to the NIS domain, which is incorrect in our
case. However, I haven't found a way to display the domain chosen by
Solaris 10. I do know how Solaris is supposed to determine it, but
I need a way to verify this.
