I'm get the following messages posted to the /var/adm/syslog file ever second and not sure on how to stop the process.
May 14 15:50:52 a3360 bootpgw[10263]: version 2.3.5
May 14 15:50:52 a3360 inetd[347]: /etc/bootpgw exit 0x1

As said about this gets logged every second only thing that changes is the [10263] goes to [10264.....10268 etc]

First - the number changes because the old process dies and a new one starts so it gets a different pid.
Second - try man bootpgw - find out what it is - you might need it.
Third - has the system always done this or was something changed?
Fourth - I don't know SCO - I'm only going off the messages you post and experience with other UNIX OS - you may not get a good answer here as there haven't been many folks who jump on SCO questions. But, your second error message is done by the inetd process (showing that bootpgw exited). Either the process is restarted automatically if it dies by inetd or possibly it's in a file called inittab in /etc.

Check out the man pages for inittab, inetd, and bootpgw. It may give you more clues to what to look for.

rstatd

rstatd(1M)																rstatd(1M)

NAME

       rstatd - kernel statistics server

SYNOPSIS

       log_file]

DESCRIPTION

       is an RPC server that returns performance statistics obtained from the kernel.  The utility prints this information (see rup(1)).

       invokes through (see inetd(1M)).

   Options
       recognizes the following options and command-line arguments:

	      Log any errors to the named log file,
			     log_file.	Errors are not logged if the option is not specified.

			     Information  logged  to the file includes date and time of the error, the host name, process ID and name of the func-
			     tion generating the error, and the error message.	Note that different services can share a single log  file  because
			     enough information is included to uniquely identify each error.

	      Exit after serving each RPC request.
			     Using the option, the security file can control access to RPC services.

	      Exit only if

				  o  dies (see portmap(1M)),

				  o  another registers with or

				  o  becomes unregistered with portmap.

			     The  option  is  more  efficient  since a new process is not launched for each RPC request.  Note, this option is the
			     default.
