Can't figure out NFS file sharing (self.linux)

Sorry, noob here. I have been using Linux for a decade at least, but some basic stuff still stump me. Today, it's file sharing: The idea is that the server is good at CPU and the NAS is good at storage. My NAS does run Docker but the services are slow; and my server runs a bunch of Docker containers just fine but has limited disk space (SSD).

Want:

Share a directory on my NAS, so that my homelab server can use it.
Security is not important; the share does not need to be locked down.

Have:

Server+NAS are on their own little 1Gb Cisco switch, so network latency should be minimal.
Linux NAS and Linux server have separate users/UID/GID.

Whatever I try, it always ends up with errors about 'access denied' or read-only or something. I conclude that I am not smart enough to figure it out.

Help?
