As I've seen a few times, probably mounted directories have no execute
bit set for group and other.
Check the permissions, and if that's the case and you think that
suggested earlier 'umask=000' is too permissive, you may use 'dmask=022'
as it applies only to directories, and 'fmask='133' to restrict regular
files permissions.

See 'man mount' for all options.
