[SOLVED] rsync doesnt work on nfs shares

Question

Ok, i have a nfs4 set up and i can copy files, delete files and move files around just fine from my desktop to my nas.
But as soon as i want to use rsync to sync directories it fails with this message:
rsync: chown "/mnt/nas/Audio/Rips/flac/Anthrax" failed: Invalid argument (22)
the user i am copying with is the very same on both systems:
[carnager@archnas ~]$ id
uid=1000(carnager) gid=100(users)
[carnager@freebox ~]$ id
uid=1000(carnager) gid=100(users)
One thing that i noticed is this:
When i do a "ls -l" on the mounted nas directory i get an output like this:
[carnager@freebox ~]$ ls -l /mnt/nas/ | tail -1
drwxr-xr-x 8 4294967294 4294967294 4096 Dec 31 18:03 Video
where it normally should show my username and group.
Any ideas?

ok, then i probably know my problem, but not how to solve it:
[carnager@freebox ~]$ sudo /etc/rc.d/nfs-common start
:: Mounting pipefs filesystem [DONE]
:: Starting rpc.idmapd daemon [FAIL]
