Here is your problem:
<snip>
I have shared the directory through System i Navigator as read only.
</snip>

That shares it for a totally different approach that what you are doing.
You have to export it, not share it. And since IBM already used the
EXPORT command in binder language you will have to use the EXPORTFS
command (export file system).

I use NFS between systems. Some do mounts, some do exports. EXPORTFS is
much simpler than all the options on MOUNT.
EXPORTFS OPTIONS('-I -O') DIR('/xyz')
Basically that exports (shares) my '/xyz' directory
Then the client system does a mount on it.
MOUNT TYPE(*NFS) MFS('gdihq:/tmp') MNTOVRDIR('/gdihq/tmp') +
OPTIONS('rw,suid,retry=5,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=20,retrans=5,
+
acregmin=30,acregmax=60,acdirmin=30,acdirmax=60,soft,async,
+
sec=sys,vers=3:2,nocache')

It's imperative that both systems (in an IBM i world) preceed these
commands with STRNFSSVR. I use STRNFSSVR *ALL.
