Luis, It is the rpc daemon and answers Uniobjects connections (java or vb varieties).
AFAIK it also answers UniOdbc and uniadmin connections. On Linux/Unix/Windows you can do a netstat or if you are on a different box, use nmap to portscan the server running Unidata. You will see it listening on port 31438. It starts or stops as part of the startud/stopud but you can also start/stop it separately using $UDTBIN/stopunirpcd and startunirpcd. Earlier releases of Unidata had a bug in the startud that reported it as not started when it had. If you see this, use a showud to check if it really is running or not. You can configure timeouts in unishared/unirpc/unirpcservices.
