DESCRIPTION
The ncidd.conf file contains the configuration information for ncidd,
the Network Caller ID Server.

of non-blank characters, everything between double quotes, or an equal
sign.

command lines, beginning with 'set'
set ITEM = VALUE [ITEM = VALUE] [...]
where ITEM = blacklist, cidalias, cidlog, cidlogmax, cidnon‐
ame, datalog, genid, blacklist, initcid, initstr, lineid,
lockfile, nomodem, noserial, pidfile, port, send, ttyclocal,
ttyport, ttyspeed, verbose, whitelist
