NFS + nobody user? (was: Re: poudriere + ZFS + NFS -> chown: /usr/local/poudriere/data/.m/rpi5-freebsd143-custom/01/.npkg: Operation not permitted)

Hi, What is special about the nobody (65534) user in NFS? I couldn't find anything in the documentation that prohibits this uid to be used. But I get errors when I do chown 65534, but not with chown 65533 or 65535. Ronald.
