signalling called "BRI")?

Nope, you don't need zapata.conf for capi, you only need capi.conf. There is
an example of capi.conf in chan_capi, `make config` copies it to your
/etc/asterisk dir.

Check the sample capi.conf and the README of chan_capi, it's all there..
Your exten in extensions.conf is wrong, it should look like this: exten =>
_XXXXXX,1,Dial,CAPI/123456:BYEXTENSION
Where 123456 is the msn you assigned to a controller in capi.conf.

examples/documentation?)
