Issue

NFSv4 automounts getting nobody:nobody ownership on NIS [Solaris] clients.
This seems to be an issue on NFS side, not being able to pass down proper ownership.

You can test via a manual mount, that when NFSv3 is enforced, ownership looks good:

mount -t nfs -o vers=3 HOSTNAME:path/to/mount /mountpoint

Environment

NFS server: RHEL6
Automount server: RHEL6
NIS server: RHEL6
client: Solaris
