NetApp NFS to RHEL 6 - mounts but can't write


So I've got an NFS share setup on my NetApp, I can get it to mount, but I get permission denied when I try to write to the mountpoint. I'm really scratching my head on this one and could use a shove in the right direction.
A little info:
mount shows:
172.16.114.6:/vol/pubprod_nfs_store on /var/www/marketing type nfs (rw,proto=tcp,vers=4,addr=172.16.114.6,clientaddr=172.16.121.94)
This is the command I used to mount it:
mount -o proto=tcp -t nfs 172.16.114.6:/vol/pubprod_nfs_store /var/www/marketing

In /etc/exports:
/vol/pubprod_nfs_store 172.16.121.94(rw,anonuid=48,anongid=48)

In /etc/fstab:
172.16.114.6:/vol/prodpub_nfs_store /var/www/marketing nfs4 sync,rsize=1024,wsize=1024,suid,rw,auto,_netdev 1 2

And this is what it looks like when I mount it:

[root@granthampub www]# pwd
/var/www
[root@granthampub www]# ls -l
total 20
drwxr-xr-x. 2 apache apache 4096 Feb 7 08:51 cgi-bin
drwxr-xr-x. 3 apache apache 4096 Mar 20 10:22 error
drwxr-xr-x. 2 apache apache 4096 Feb 7 08:51 html
drwxr-xr-x. 3 apache apache 4096 Mar 20 10:22 icons
drwxr-xr-x. 3 apache nobody 4096 May 11 14:43 marketing

One thing I notice, sometimes the UID gets set to apache instead of nobody, and other times the group gets set to apache instead of nobody, but never have I seen BOTH set to apache (uid and gid 48)
If I cd to marketing, and try to write I get the following:

[root@granthampub www]# cd marketing/
[root@granthampub marketing]# touch test
touch: cannot touch `test': Permission denied
[root@granthampub marketing]# ls -l
total 0
[root@granthampub marketing]#


So what gives? Any ideas?

A little more info

So I did an strace, and I'm guessing it has something to do with an anonymous mapping, and it's being set to deny, when I try to touch a file I see the following:

execve("/bin/touch", ["touch", "test"], [/* 22 vars */]) = 0

Not sure how much you know about NFS, but

1. nfs shares are by uid/gid ie they must be the same numeric value on both sides to work properly.
user/group names are irrelevant.

2. the default option when exporting is root_squash; effectively setting remote (on client side) root to nobody or equiv to avoid leaving a gaping security hole....

HTH
