Sorry to come to this late.
If you are using NFS to mount the drive then it will work provided your
user ID numbers are the same on each machine as that's what NFS uses.
(Hopelessly insecure but hey they assume that you know what you're doing
and can secure your network properly.) However there is an exception to
this: root is protected and the default behaviour is to do what's
called 'rootsquash' - which stops root on one machine being root on
another. There is some setting you can change to open that hole too if
you really need to.
