Seem like you might have non-matching nfsv4 domains. 

For Linux, see "man rpc.idmapd" and the -d option, it should match
(on open solaris) 

# cat /var/run/nfs4_domain
my_v4_domain.com

should you wish to alter the nfsv4 domain for solaris you can do this: 

# pfexec sharectl set -p nfsmapid_domain=allaboutme.com nfs
