Strange nobody

I live in an NIS world. Recently I added two machines in the network and started configuring them. As I added utilities and applications and made them work one by one , I felt good. But all of a sudden one day I found that when I shared a directory with files owned by root on one machine and mounted it on the other machine as root, i can see the files alright, but they are all owned by user nobody. I expected it to be root. Something is gone bad and I can't figure out what, come what may. On any other machine in the NIS network it seems fine except these two machines. One machine cannot share rightly the files with the other. It seems that these two machines are strangers to one another. Everythhing else seems to be perfect.
On mcaine2:
share -o rw=<machine1>, root=<machine2> /usr/local

On machine1:
mount -F nfs <machine2>:/usr/local /mnt

I know it used to work before. It must have happened during one of the system changes. I can't figure out. The same mount on another machine works.I also tried with option anon=0 withoutt success. Please help me. I am running out of ideas and am not a solaris expert.

Thanks much,
Brenda
