 	Hi

There's something weird going on with nfs-mounts with recent kernels. See 
these bugreports:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207670
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=209964
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=217793

I've tested this on Ubuntu Edgy (2.6.19) and Feisty (2.6.19 & 2.6.20-rc1) 
and a fellow worked tried RHEL5b2. To summarize: permissions from the 
first mount from a given server are inherited by following mounts from the 
same server. So if the first mount is ro, all rw-mounts are ro as well. 
This can be worked around by making the rw mount first.
