                     12: The racal/vadic ACU interface is provided by the files

                     14: which is a multiplexed file, and by the daemon
                     15: .I dnd
                     16: which monitors the file, simulating a standard DN dialer.
                     17: To place an outgoing call one forks a sub-process
                     18: trying to open
                     19: .I /dev/cul?
                     20: and then opens the corresponding file
                     21: .I /dev/cua?
                     22: file and writes a number on it.
                     23: The daemon translates the call to proper format for the
                     24: Racal/Vadic interface, and monitors the progress of the call
                     25: recording accounting information for later use.
