<br clear="all">Hello fellow asteriskers (can i say that?)<br>
<br>
My name is Brian. I'm looking to setup asterisk on a 1.1GB
machine with 256MB of RAM Using an X100P wildcard (clone? i ordered the
devices on EBay). When up and running I would like to use this machine
with my Vonage VOIP connection. To support my young educational
non-profit org -> shameless plug <a href="http://www.parkday.org">www.parkday.org</a>.<br>
<br>
I have been reading about asterisk for about one month now. I have
purchased the O'reilly Book "Asterisk: The Future of Telephony" and
have read about half of it.<br>
<br>
First attempt at running asterisk on FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE resulted in a
core dump anytime I tried to run asterisk from the cmd line.
Poking around I read somewhere?? that asterisk is not quite ready for
6.0 RELEASE just yet. Upon reading this I went and re-installed
the OS with version 5.4 RELEASE.<br>
<br>
First thing I did after re-installing my OS is re-copiled my kernel to remove all extraneous devices, everything is ok so far.<br>
<br>
Now I downloaded all the asterisk (main sounds addons) source code from digium ftp site placed them in /usr/src.<br>
<br>
Then I went into the /usr/ports and installed bison gmake and libpri.<br>
<br>
>From there went to the zaptel ports directory to install the zaptel
drivers from there... Here's where things start to get sticky?<br>
<br>
patrick# make clean && make && make install<br>
<br>
install seemed to be completed ok<br>
<br>
patrick# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/zaptel.sh start<br>
kldload: can't load %%PREFIX%%/lib/zaptel/zaptel.ko: No such file or directory<br>
<br>
Here's where I'm lost? On my first attempt using 6.0-RELEASE
zaptel started up fine at boot time and even recognized both X100P
cards?<br>
<br>
So I wondered . . . Do I need to install asterisk before I tried to run
the zaptel drivers? So I went into /usr/src/asterisk-1.0.10 and
ran:<br>
<br>
patrick# gmake clean && gmake && gmake install<br>
<br>
All seemed to go well there, So I ran:<br>
<br>
patrick# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/zaptel.sh start<br>
<br>
Which resulted in the same error as before. So now I'm really stumped! <br>
<br>
<br>
Any assistance with my conundrum would be greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanx<br>
<br>
