Does Samba require RPC/port 111

Hi,

If I put up a unix machine for a Samba server I don't have
any good reason to allow RPC or NFS and am inclined leave
RPC/port 111 disabled but someone mentioned that they thought
Samba might require this service. I'd be most grateful for 
clarification on this issue if anyone has info on this.

Thanks,
