You asked why:
http://linuxmafia.com/pipermail/conspire/2020-July/010870.html
and I answered that:
http://linuxmafia.com/pipermail/conspire/2020-July/010871.html
along with more than enough information how to resolve your issue.
How is an additional question. There's an extra charge for that. ;-)
Hint: in many cases, by default, for more-or-less network(-ish)
filesystems (e.g. NFS), it is often customary, by default, to not
extend to superuser ("root") on the client, god-like (superuser)
powers over the server filesystem(s) (or portions thereof) remotely
so accessed. For ... reasons.
