#---------------------------------------------------------------------------
whereas similarly I tried over kernel nfs and found that write should fail,
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[root@snow ~]# cat /etc/exports
/opt *(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
/home *(rw,root_squash)

[root@konsoul testing]# mount | grep home

[root@konsoul testing]# ls -ld

[root@konsoul testing]# ls -ld dir-n1
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Jan 29  2012 dir-n1

[root@konsoul testing]# ls -l dir-n1

[root@konsoul testing]# cat >> dir-n1/1
bash: dir-n1/1: Permission denied

some more observation related to the same issue,

created a new directory from fuse mount, effectively from root username,
chmod 770 dirfuse
[root@dhcp159-239 nfs-test]# ls -ld dir-fuse
drwxrwx---. 2 root root 26 Dec 14 00:07 dir-fuse
tried to create file inside this dir and it is a pass,
[root@dhcp159-239 nfs-test]# touch dir-fuse/new1


whereas on kernel-nfs ... it fails similarly,

[root@konsoul nfs-test]# ls -ld dir-new
drwxrwx---. 2 root root 4096 Jan 29  2012 dir-new

[root@konsoul nfs-test]# touch dir-new/new1
touch: cannot touch `dir-new/new1': Permission denied
