        Under the *nix side of things, look into "iWar". For *nix
dialers, it's probably the best - however, I'm a bit biased (I'm the
primary author!). It has support for MySQL, two means of "tone detection",
Random/Seq. dialer, pre-built number list, ncurses support, and I've been
adding signal processing into the VoIP side of iWar (uses IAX2). The current
version is 0.071, but I've close to completing 0.08 (Postgresql supprt,
HTTP logging support, bugfixes, other features).

        You can find that at http://www.softwink.com/iwar/

        I know the THC guys are working on a war dialing software.
There's also a older program called "Shokdial" for *nix. Some people
load a DOS emulator and run Toneloc/THC-Scan.

        I give iWar a 9.0 (I would give it a 10.0, but being the primary
developer, I know what bugs exist :) There's no need for loading a
DOS emulator, it supports just about everything other dialers support
and then some. It's also still being developed.

If it wasn't for C, we'd be using BASI, PASAL and OBOL.
