1. the user for maproot is resolved from the point of view of the 
machine that is running the mfsmaster process.
2. the password if supplied into the mfsexports, as far as I know, is 
just a password (or MD5 password), and exists within the mfsexports 
file, it is not the system's /etc/passwd user's system login password.
3. the file touched by user1 should be owned by root in the file system. 
I have been unable to figure out how to mount as a user1, user2 in my 
system so far.
