sounds to me the link may work for nfs version 3 only.
Now with IPA and NFS4, there got to be something more.

I do not know the exact steps on mac because the is no ipa-client on Mac so you would have to configure the machine to be an IPA client manually.
This would mean that you need to authenticate with kerberos and then make the nfs part use the credential cache of the logged in user (if you are planning to use it for users mounting shares). This is what needs to happen conceptually. I know that people have done in the past but I do not think there are instructions.

Once you manged to do it please see the presentation how to setup secure NFS on Linux
http://rhsummit.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/dickson_the_evolution_nfs_protocol.pdf
May be it will give you some hints and pointers.

The only known problem with this slide deck is that on slide 18 after kinit admin and before ipa-getkeytab you need to add service for the NFS server
ipa service-add nfs/`hostname`@EXAMPLE

Hello all,
I have IPA server and NFS server set up on a computer running centos 6.3.
Is there a way to set up a mac laptop to access the data on the NFS server?
The laptop does not have a static IP. DNS is not configured with IPA.
If yes, how do I config the mac?

Is this what you are looking for?
