Assuming I got what you want -
The problem is the OS on box 1. It thinks requests from box 2 are network only requests.
The user coming in from 2 is treated as a network login on 1. You need to have those directories mounted locally on 2 (via samba on machine 2, for example). That way all of the permissions for a user from 2 are valid "inside" the filesystem. In other words, accessing the directory on 1 by a user on 2 gets "treated" as if the origin of the request was local to 1.
The samba example is just one method, there are some others, IIRC. It has been 10 years since I did anything with Solaris 9.
BTW, if anything happens to box 1, the users on box 2 are locked out as well. Because their home directory is nopt available. So your initial design is less than optimal. You may have some NAS options that bypass this problem - I do not know.

genrbox
GENBOX(1) General Commands Manual GENBOX(1)
NAME
genrbox - generate a RADIANCE description of a box
SYNOPSIS
genrbox mat name xsiz ysiz zsiz [ -i ][ -r rad | -b bev ]
DESCRIPTION
Genbox produces a RADIANCE scene description of a parallelepiped with one corner at the origin and the opposite corner at (xsiz, ysiz,
zsiz). The sides of the box will be parallel to the three coordinate planes. The surfaces that make up the box will be modified by mat
and their identifiers will begin with name. The -i option can be used to produce a box with inward directed surface normals. The -r
option can be used to specify the radius for rounded edges. The -b option can be used to specify the indentation for beveled edges.
EXAMPLE
To produce a rectangular box made of wood with beveled edges:
genrbox wood box1 5 8 3 -b .5 > box1
AUTHOR
Greg Ward
BUGS
Because spheres and cylinders are used to construct boxes with rounded edges, a transparent box of this type appears quite messy.
