ah ha, yup that's the issue then. The setfacl sets an ACL in the remote
filesystem, you just have to do that once from some system that has
no_root_squash access to /home/ciao, assuming you're running the setfacl
command as root (you could also run it as the owner of /home/ciao if that's
a non-root user). See man getfacl and setfacl for details :)
