AuOpenServer - connect to audio server

servername
                 Specifies  the  audio  server name.  This determines the server and communications domain to be
                 used.

       num_authproto
                 Specifies the length of the connection authorization protocol name.

       authproto Specifies the name of the connection authorization protocol.

       num_authdata
                 Specifies the length of the connection authorization data.

       authdata  Specifies the connection authorization data.

       return_status
                 If non-NULL, and the connection is refused, returns an error message.

AuOpenServer creates a connection to the specified audio server and returns  a  pointer  to  an  AuServer
       structure  or  NULL, with return_status (if non-NULL) pointing to an error message describing the reason,
       if it was unsuccessfull.

       If servername is NULL or a pointer to NUL, AuOpenServer get the value from  the  enviroment.   servername
       has  the  format hostname:port or hostname::port.  If a double colon (::) separates the hostname and port
       number, AuOpenServer connects using DECnet streams.  If a single colon (:)  separates  the  hostname  and
       port  number,  and  the  hostname  is a host machine name, AuOpenServer connects using TCP streams.  If a
       single colon (:) separates the hostname and  port  number,  and  the  hostname  is  "unix",  AuOpenServer
       connects  using  UNIX  domain  sockets (or Streams).  If the hostname is not specified, AuOpenServer uses
       whatever it believes is the fastest transport.
