Funny that you ask. I just had to document the configuration of version 3.0 so that a Win2k Solaris 8 pair could cross mount. The hairy part is the name service mappings. If you have identically named users between unix and windows it is fairly straightforward, but you can get pretty far lost in the unix-to-windows namespace mappings otherwise. So it is not quite as easy as "install this .exe" and have something working.
One nice thing about this is that the NFS sharing is integrated into the folder properties dialog as an extra tab beside the "Sharing" tab!
IMO the nfs portion is the only compelling part of this package. I would rather do Cygwin for a shell/dev environment.
