+.TH PHONES 5 "15 January 1983"
+.UC 4
+.SH NAME
+phones \- remote host phone number data base
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The file /etc/phones contains the system-wide
+private phone numbers for the
+.IR tip (1C)
+program.  This file is normally unreadable, and so may contain
+privileged information.  The format of the file is a series of lines
+of the form: <system-name>[\ \et]*<phone-number>.  The system name is
+one of those defined in the
+.IR remote (5)
+file and the phone number is
+constructed from [0123456789-=*%].  The ``='' and ``*'' characters are
+indicators to the auto call units to pause and wait for a second dial
+tone (when going through an exchange).  The ``='' is required by the
+DF02-AC and the ``*'' is required by the BIZCOMP 1030.
+.PP
+Only one phone number per line is permitted.  However, if more than
+one line in the file contains the same system name
+.IR tip (1C)
+will attempt to dial each one in turn, until it establishes a connection.
