These NFS option are called anonuid and anongid. These options only
address anonymous access (ie, access from IDs for which there is no
associated uid/gid on the remote system). Since the OP seem to have uid
and gid mapped to different user and group, the mounted file system will
still show incorrect user and group owner. Write access to the share can
be granted for all uid by using the all_squash option which will make
all access anonymous. However, the owner/group will still be mismatched.
