So, your local users are  accessing the filesystem with their own unix
user, whereas remote  users are using Apache to  write the filesystem,
so, the permissions are the one of Apache. 

I had the  same problem, and we decided to remove  the NFS access, and
we are using  only WebDAV. It works quite well, but  I agree that it's
not really satisfying. 

The other  solution is to  give read-write permission for  every files
and to  all users (chmod 666  ...), with all the  security problems it
will rise :-(

Actually,  you have  a  WebDAV  problem, but  this  is unrelated  with
tla ...
