Once the client is installed, we'll configure a custom UID/GID for access via the anon mount option by creating the needed DWORDs within the registry. In this example, we'll plan to pass the UID and primary GID of 0 to the NFS server.

Run 'regedit' to start the registry editor then navigate to '\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ClientForNFS\CurrentVersion\Default' and create two new DWORD (32-bit) values the the following names and a value of 0:

AnonymousUid

AnonymousGid
