Michael,
In following situation if I access as root or non-root, I am facing same
"Permission denied" error.
So the problem is just not with root but all users.

client# ls -l /borneo4
ls: cannot access /borneo4/test-dir: Permission denied
?????????? ? ? ? ?                ? test-dir
client# su - eos
client$ ls -lh /borneo4/
ls: cannot access /borneo4/test-dir: Permission denied
total 0
?????????? ? ? ? ?                ? test-dir



And on server side I am ready change file permissions. By
changing ownership of directory will solve this problem without using
no_root_squash ?
