Assume we have two machines, A and B, running the same version of Linux.

A is a workstation, B is a server (with Samba share for the Mrs)

On A, user 1 has a UID of 500, user 2 has a UID of 501
On B, user 1 has a UID of 501, user 2 has a UID of 500

When user 1 goes to B:/home/user1, all files are owned by user1:users.

When you TELNET to B from A, user1's files are suddenly owned by user2 ?

Que ??

I didn't think UID's mattered across NFS mounts ?
