Whoa!  The pcnfs stuff I've seen from Sun seems to regard pcnfs as
a separate but related system, not a part of nfs (sorta like tftp/ftp).
You don't always get pcnfs with nfs -- different daemons.

Now, I have no great personal love of Apollo's NFS -- we had a couple
of apollo guys out for a couple days to make ours work.  As it is,
the apollo routed'ss seem to be doing very strange things, and I've got
one diskless machine (nodes are for linked lists) who, when I switched
its partner (a harrowing ordeal in and of itself), decided to go
bonkers with tcp.  I now have to manuall kill the tcp_server, inetd, and
routed's on it after it boots, then restart them.  Then they work.
The inetd starts up without the info in /etc/networks, and ...and...


ARRRRRRRGGGHGHHGGGGHHHH!

We should all go back to 11/45's running berknet.

(you think I'm kidding!)
