I get a list of services including nfs, mountd, sgi_fam, portmapper, nlock_mgr, status. Could iptables be affecting this?

Yes of course. The portmapper for examples uses tcp/udp port 111. Your firewall must not block that ports for your internel network but for the externel net it should do so.
For this U should add some rules to your firewall script, example:

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i ppp0 --dport 111 -j DROP
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p udp -i ppp0 --dport 111 -j DROP

(where ppp0 is the interface to the externel world)
