/home clientname(rw,map_static=/etc/nfs/clientname.map)
The file /etc/nfs/clientname.map would then contain something like this:
uid 501 504
uid 502 511
uid 503 501
uid 504 505
uid 505 502
This would map user ID 501 on the client to the local user 504; client
user ID 502 to local ID 511; and so on.

The error I receive is:
exportfs: Unknown keyword "map_static=/etc/nfs/
deepblue.map" in export file
my entry in /etc/exports is:
/export deepblue(rw,map_static=/etc/nfs/
deepblue.map)
any ideas?

in /etc/exports
/export deepblue(rw,map_static=/etc/nfs/deepblue.map)
my error:
exportfs: Unknown keyword "map_static=/etc/nfs/deepblue.map" in export
file
The map_static keyword in in the man pages on that system, as well as in
how-tos at redhat.com
This seems to be a common issue -- I found a number of posts but didn't
see any workarounds / explanations or solutions. <bummer>
Thanks
