Must be new, I don't have those two manuals in my 11.4

Doesn't say much :-?

This one only uses:

Nobody-User = nobody
Nobody-Group = nobody

This is, I think, the generic mapping that was always available, no other
user could be remapped.

There's probably more too it and there's probably a need to experiment,
but this isn't a "there isn't a way" suituation.
Perhaps...

Well, there's always winbind. That's good at remapping id's no?. I'd rather keep the same id both client and server side though. rpc.idmapd does it fine for nfs4 and statd for nfs3. /etc/idmapd.conf only maps the user to nobody if it can't find a matching id at the client end. There is oodles of misinformation out there on nfs4:-(
