I ditched NFS a long time ago so I am probably not going to be of much
more help.  For a similar situation I used samba mount instead.  A
friend of mine is using sshfs to solve the same problem.

Out of curiosity, do the UIDs and GIDs look even remotely similar
across all three machines?  IIRC, NFS uses the numeric UIDs and GIDs
instead of the name.  So you may have user bob on all three machines,
but if the UID is different then you are going to run into problems.
On my DNS-323 the UIDs are very different from my other systems.

ls -nl
will give you the numeric UIDs and GIDs
