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

                      7: which is a multiplexed file, and by the daemon
                      8: .I dnd
                      9: which monitors the file, simulating a standard DN dialer.
                     10: To place an outgoing call one forks a sub-process

                     15: file and writes a number on it.
                     16: The daemon translates the call to proper format for the
                     17: Racal/Vadic interface, and monitors the progress of the call
                     18: recording accounting information for later use.
