Are you setting no_root_squash on the NFS server?
If that doesn't help, give us:
- your /etc/exports line on the NFS server
- output from `ls -ld /vservers* /vservers*/test' on both
servers, before and after any NFS mount operation (ie, what are the
permissions of the directories under the mounts, sometimes relevant).
- the exact commands you are running (cut and paste the shell session).
Prepending `strace -fae' should show you the actual system call that is
receiving EPERM, which might shed some light on the issue.
Good luck,
Sam.
