  callback
       
          1.  A scheme used in event-driven programs
          where the program registers a subroutine (a "callback
          handler") to handle a certain event.  The program does not
          call the handler directly but when the event occurs, the
          run-time system calls the handler, usually passing it
          arguments to describe the event.
       
          2.  A user authentication scheme
          used by some computers running dial-up services.  The user
          dials in to the computer and gives his user name and
          password.  The computer then hangs up the connection and
          uses an auto-dial modem to call back to the user's
          registered telephone number.  Thus, if an unauthorised person
          discovers a user's password, the callback will go, not to him,
          but to the owner of that login who will then know that his
          account is under attack.
       
          However, some PABXs can be fooled into thinking that the
          caller has hung up by sending them a dial tone.  When the
          computer tries to call out on the same line it is not actually
          dialing through to the authorised user but is still connected
          to the original caller.
       
          3.  cost control callback.
