I have a linux client and freebsd nfs server (NAS4free actually) NFS share is mounted by fstab this way:
server:/mnt/disk/ZHomeData on /data type nfs (rw,nosuid,relatime,vers=3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=20,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountvers=3,mountport=705,mountproto=udp,local_lock=none)
On the client and server I have the same UID and GUID
UID permission works well, but I cannot access files or directories where only group matches.
Here is a shell session:
artiom@client /data/BACKUP % ls -l
total 1030151
drwx------ 2 artiom family 3 Feb 16 2014 Drivers
drwxr-x--- 5 yulia family 5 Jul 27 2014 mac

uid=1000(artiom) gid=1000(artiom) groups=1000(artiom),1001(family)
artiom@client /data/BACKUP % cd Drivers
artiom@client /data/BACKUP/Drivers
