 Linux.
 So many flavors, so many subtle nuances......

 Sounds to me like your squashing.
 Normal NFS default is root_squash, but you may also be squashing everyone else.
 ( squashing causes the user to be mapped to user nobody, the lowest possible
 permission levels. Since you *are* seeing nobody, nogroup it appears you are 
squashing. )
 (( varies depending on which version of NFS, too. ))
 I can't know the "defaults" of all 700+ linux OS out there, so....
 If this is the appliance, then the Red Hat defaults should apply
 read only
 async
 wdelay
 root_squash.

 Also, CentOS applies ACL by default, so your ACL would also apply.
 If it's another OS, I have no idea.
 
 Try exporting this....
 /var/snd 192.168.1.102(rw,no_acl,nohide,root_squash,async)
 and let us know.
 If that doesn't work, look to your ACL configuration.

Lost interest?  It's so bad I've lost apathy.
