It's in the ports/packages collection.  (It installs as
/usr/local/libexec/rpc.pcnfsd.)

Btw., it's NOT responsible for mounting itself, just only for
authentication from the DOS box to the Unix machine.  Remember that
you have to start mountd with the -r option in order to allow non-root
users to mount file systems.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
