Solaris 10 Services - Audit and Closure

Hello

We have recently been through an audit of our solaris servers.
All our solaris servers are running version 10.
We have been told to close down all the services and we have closed what we could by using svcadm disable
We only wish to let ssh and the ftp service to run.

Below is a list of the services that are still running.

Code:
Starting Nmap 5.00 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2010-01-20 08:13 SAST
Interesting ports on pluto (168.X.X.X):
Not shown: 976 closed ports
PORT      STATE SERVICE
21/tcp    open  ftp
22/tcp    open  ssh
25/tcp    open  smtp
111/tcp   open  rpcbind
513/tcp   open  login
587/tcp   open  submission
3300/tcp  open  unknown
4045/tcp  open  lockd
5555/tcp  open  freeciv
6112/tcp  open  dtspc
6788/tcp  open  unknown
6789/tcp  open  ibm-db2-admin
7100/tcp  open  font-service
32771/tcp open  sometimes-rpc5
32772/tcp open  sometimes-rpc7
32775/tcp open  sometimes-rpc13
32776/tcp open  sometimes-rpc15
32777/tcp open  sometimes-rpc17
32778/tcp open  sometimes-rpc19
32779/tcp open  sometimes-rpc21
32780/tcp open  sometimes-rpc23
32781/tcp open  unknown
32782/tcp open  unknown
65000/tcp open  unknown

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 27.28 seconds

.

Can someone please help and explain what these services are, and which ones should be closed?
Why so many rpc services are needed?
Is the login service needed?
I assume we can close the ibm-db2 service as there are no ibm products installed

Please help.
Thank you so much, much appreciated.
Solly

Hello

Thanks for that, I am a bit worried the execution of closing the rpc process down?.
Do i just run a svcs -a | grep rpc and then use svcadm disable rpc....

Thanks please confirm.

Yes , you would do that. However, anyone one with admin priviledges can still turn them on using svcadm enable. If you do not wish that to happen, I suppose you check the /etc/services file and comment the relevant services that you don't need
