NFS: Problem with user and group IDs

Hi,
I've got a problem with 'squashing' user and group IDs under NFS.
On the NFS Server there is the directory /data/test with owner ID 1011
and group ID 100.
Here is the /etc/exports file on the NFS server:
/data/test
172.16.10.1(ro,root_squash,all_squash,anon_uid=65534,anongid=65534)
On the client side I mount it with the command:
mount -t nfs 172.16.10.2:/data/test /mnt/test
After it has been successfully mounted, the directory on the client
system has the owner ID 1011 and group ID 100, like on the server.
But the expected result for me is, that on the client system the
directory has owner ID 65534 and group ID 65534 like it has been set in
the /etc/exports file on the server.
I tried less options in the exports file as well. The result is always
the same. With squash and without squash options.
Client and Server are Debian woody. I tried this on a Debian sid
(unstable) system as well, same results. Switching from
nfs-kernel-server to nfs-user-server didn't change anything, too.
My question is now: Is this a bug, or I am doing something wrong?
Thanks for any answer.
Regards,
Thomas Babut
