I use /etc/diald.options for the setup information,
setting fifo
setting timeouts
local and remote ip address,
asyncmap
etc.....

Then start diald like this:
diald -f /etc/diald.options

Again I use /etc/diald.conf for the rules file.  /etc/diald.defs would work as
well.  The setup I use has some legacy behind it and may not be intuitive.  In
fact is is completely un-intuitive.

config.h:#define DIALD_DEFS_FILE "/usr/lib/diald/diald.defs"
