i've some more infos:

as i wrote i can't  su - <user> when the user's home is mounted over nfs. this 
happens when the users home perms are set to 770. as soon as i change the 
users perms to 771 i can use su - <user>. su <user> also works with 770.
it seems that root need to have at least 'x' perm on the users home directory.
as an alternative to 771 i cant export the users home with maproot=root grr..
why is this nessecery in 5.1?
