I believe this is for what it is network, I think you need it for all
network type things such as ppp and LAN.
:gated
If your not running through another computer for internet access or
network access you are fine, if you have a direct connection to the net
you can turn this off. (unless you use ipmaskarading)
:rusersd rwalld rwhod
These are for other computers to send you wall messages and to be able to
do a who on your machine from a remote host.
:amd autofs
Turn these off unless you are on a LAN and plan on mounting different nfs
volumes.
:local
I will pass on this one.

:rwhod as well as rusersd do, but I'm not quite sure under what conditions
