Hello all.

I know it's not really a solution, but I reinstalled RRABuntu on the machine in question and everything is running OK.

Exports (from Cowboy):

/var/snd 192.168.1.102(rw,no_acl,nohide,root_squash,async)

Fstab:

192.168.1.101:/var/snd /var/snd nfs defaults 0 0

Thinking about it now, this machine was 'recycled' from elsewhere before I reinstalled the OS so chances are there were remnants of the previous install or database on the machine. Not necessarily a fix but hopefully the exports/fstab information will be useful for someone.

Regards,

I have just tried creating a file on system1, it has the permissions

issue? How can I make sure that new files are created as fantasy fantasy?
  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.
