Thanks for your replay, Bob. 

I have that too. 

$ ps -ef | grep rpc.mountd
root      1539     1  0 Jul07 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd --
manage-gi

So you are saying to remove it?
I did that and restarted my nfs-kernel-server. Now:

$ ps -ef | grep rpc.mountd
root     12869     1  0 Jul30 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.mountd

However, on the client side, Autofs still show the wrong uid and gid. 
Same as in OP.

Anywhere else to check?

Thanks
