Are you doing anything with NFS? If not then turn off the nfs service, and the rpc services

[root@dc1-rhel5-32build001:~]# chkconfig --list | grep "(nfs|rpc)" nfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off nfslock 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off rpcgssd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off rpcidmapd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off rpcsvcgssd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off

If you are using NFS, then stop using it before restarting the services.
