Trannsmission tear-apart

I must've been smarter 20 years ago when I last did this.
I'm trying to separate the water tranny from the land tranny.
I have the cover removed & the double gear selector fork off.
Now I'm trying to take the nut off of the main shaft.
I have the tranny out of the car & on my bench.
Since the gear & shaft spin freely, what's the easiest way to remove the nut.
I hesistate to use a pipe wrench on the splined end, or jamming a screwdriver in to hold it.
The Maintenance book page 2/9 #4 says
"Remove the top & bottom selector forks. By removing these the 4-speed box will be blocked. Unscrew & remove the driving shaft nut"
What exactly does that mean??
