Summary:                    UDEV zaptel.rules & CentOS 5
Description: 
On CentOS 5 and RHEL 5 (kernel 2.6.18-8.el5) there is a problem when using
zaptel.rules.  If you have an "asterisk" user on the system and run "make
config" in zaptel, the zaptel.rules file is placed in /etc/udev/rules.d,
which is normal.  But when you go to start zaptel, only zttranscode will be
owned to the "asterisk" user.  This is because the 50-udev.rules file
already has definitions for the other zap devices.  

make config needs to remove them from 50-udev.rules

I think this bug should remain open.  The more recent versions of Fedora,
CentOS, and RHEL now have rules in 50-udev.rules for zap devices.

If you look at 50-udev.rules located in /etc/udev/rules.d after a clean
install of the OS you will see 

# Section for zaptel device
KERNEL=="zapctl",     		NAME="zap/ctl"
KERNEL=="zaptimer",   		NAME="zap/timer"
KERNEL=="zapchannel", 		NAME="zap/channel"
KERNEL=="zappseudo",  		NAME="zap/pseudo"
KERNEL=="zap[0-9]*",  		NAME="zap/%n"

So then you install zapel and the zaptel.rules is inserted into the
rules.d directory.  The rules defined in zaptel.rules will be ignored,
because the devices were already defined in 50-udev.rules.  Maybe the
zaptel.rules file should be named 49-zaptel.rules?
