Hi Sean,

thank you. I put the domain in upper case in the imapd.conf,

and disabled all NFSv2 and NFSv3 options in /etc/sysconfig/nfs.

Now it works in my home environment:

On the server
- /etc/exports populated
- in /etc/sysconfig/nfs all NFSv2 and NFSv3 options disabled
- domainname in upper case  in /etc/idmapd.conf
- rcpidmapd running(part of nfs service, chkconfig nfs on)

On the client, I have
- /etc/fstab entries with nfsvers=4
- domainname in upper case in /etc/imapd.conf
- rcpidmapd running(chkconfig rpcimapd on)

So, as far as I can see, only the upper case for the domain as a difference

(and I disabled the NFSv2/v3 options in /etc/sysconfig/nfs on the
server side. But that shouldn't matter, I think..)

Will see at work tomorrow.

Thanks
Peter
