Squeeze must be defaulting to nfsv4. Make sure that "NFSMAPID_DOMAIN" in "/etc/default/nfs" on the Solaris box matches "Domain" in "/etc/idmapd.conf" on the Squeeze boxes. If "NFSMAPID_DOMAIN" isn't set, you should be able to get it from "cat /var/run/nfs4_domain". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
