A quick call to the helpful people at Sun revealed the following
solutions:

1.) starting pcnfs.sys with a "/f#" switch (where # is the number of
virtual drives desired), coupled with "lastdisk=<letter>" where
<letter> is whatever your last real disk is, plus #, eliminates all
those awful extra drives in the file manager.

2.) printing to lpt1.os2 and lpt2.os2 (instead of lpt1 and lpt2) gets
printing to work.  Apparently microsoft just got too clever for
themselves once again.

I have never had any trouble with PC-NFS.  I haven't tried any telnet
sessions under windows though.
