Kim & the list -

There must be a convergence in the space time continuum (sp?).

I have been commissioned by a client to build a FreeBSD base asterisk
server.

I have built dozens of servers for this client, but the obsolesence of a
motherboard I had been using required using a brand new motherboard
whose onboard RAID controller would only be recognized by FreeBSD 6.0.
So I loaded FreeBSD, upgraded it to STABLE, loaded zaptel and asterisk
from PORTS and installed a DigitNetworks X100P FXO and tried to get
zaptel to recognize it.  The system locks up when it tries to perform
the /sbin/kldload of wcfxo.ko in the zaptel.sh startup script.

Finding this install procedure today is uncanny ... I am trying it as we
speak.

My question is, since I have installed zaptel and asterisk from PORTS,
should I deinstall them before actually building zaptel and asterisk
from the svn source?

Regards -- Dean
