Can SFU be configured to use a Sun's pcnfsd for authentication?

Your question is vague... SFU is a collection of different things.

But I think this answers what you are really asking:
SFU comes with an NFS and an NFS client. Pcnfsd doesn't need to be running on a Solaris box.
The regular NFS server can be used. With Username mapping running on the SFU side the proper
SID to UID/GID happens there. The Solaris/Sun box just treats the SFU NFS client just like
another Unix box making a NFS requests (version 3 of NFS to be precise). Then for the Sun box
it just says "Windows? What windows? There's just Unix boxes out there."
