For a one time mount, you need not change any files. Just type,

  # mount solaris-machine:/path/to/export /path/on/FreeBSD

In order to mount this automatically at boot time, rc.conf requires no
modification, just a line in fstab(5),

  solaris-machine:/path/to/export  /path/on/FreeBSD  nfs  <options> 0 0 

It's typically trickier setting up the exports file and NFS servers on
the server machine.
