Summary:                    No DAHDI channel available for conference, user
introduction disabled (is chan_dahdi loaded?)
Description: 
The following error will consistently occur in an Asterisk 1.8 environment
when trying to dial-in to a MeetMe conference when the server does not have
Dahdi hardware installed:

app_meetme.c: No DAHDI channel available for conference, user introduction
disabled (is chan_dahdi loaded?)

This will cause user introductions to be disabled, including name
announcement, etc.

While chan_dahdi IS loaded correctly during compilation and install of
Asterisk/Dahdi, including associated modules, etc., a chan_dahdi.conf
configuration file in /etc/asterisk is not created if hardware does not
exist, causing MeetMe to think it can't open a dahdi_dummy channel.

Remedy to this is to rename the chan_dahdi.conf.sample file to
chan_dahdi.conf and restart Asterisk--this error will go away and the
introductions will work just fine.

Since I've seen numerous unanswered posts when searching Google to try and
find an answer to this, I thought I'd file this as an issue to get the
chan_dahdi.conf file created automatically for the above scenario so it's
not a manual process.
