X Srvr, Unix Srvr, Mac X Client Permissions Problem



Inconsistent Permissions problem.

OS X Mac Server with an NFS mount to a volumes on a Unix server.
A client authenticates to the OS X server via Appleshare over IP.  The GUID and UID on the Workgroup Manager on the OS X server matches the GUID and UID on the Unix server.


Most of the time a Mac client logs in and maps a volume, any files/folders created by the Mac client should have a default permission value of 775 (User RWX, Group RWX and Others R-X). 

On occasion, on the Unix server side, files/folders somehow get a permission value of 755 (User RWX, Group R-X and Others R-X). 
This means that though the owner has full RWX permissions, the members of the group only have R-X permissions.
Can anyone tell me the answer to this question: Is it the Mac client, OS X Server or Unix Server that is causing the intermittent issue?
Has anyone come across this issue?
