sgi_fam is an RPC service and needs portmap and is used, i think, by
some of the GUI stuff (eg nautilus). portmap needs to be locally
accessible.
i do think portmap and rpc.statd should be firewalled off by default
though. redhat-config-nfs or similar could enable portmap access if
nfs mounts are configured.
