It's the portmap(8) daemon. You can kill it on a running system. To
keep it from being started at boot,

  portmap_enable="NO"

Should be added to /etc/rc.conf.

HOWEVER, the portmapper is required for NFS, NIS, and some other
services. Try,

  % rpcinfo -p

To see if you are running anything that is using the portmapper
service.
