I have the 4030 running now, and it works fine, however when I restart
asterisk (amportal stop/start) I get an error...

Not sure yet what the exact cause is, but I do know it has something to do
with the AMP file 'zapata_additional.conf', as the error goes when I
disable the include statement in 'zapata.conf' (but then the ZAP
extensions don't work!)

The error I get is:
Nov 27 21:05:52 WARNING[15764] chan_zap.c: Ignoring echocancelwhenbridge
Nov 27 21:05:52 ERROR[15764] chan_zap.c: Syntax error parsing 'g11/2010'
at 'g11/2010'
Nov 27 21:05:52 WARNING[15764] chan_zap.c: Reload of chan_zap.so is
unsuccessful!


I suspect it is because it tries to use the channel group (g11 is the
group for channels 1 and 2 on the NT card) before chan_zap has completed
loading.

As a workaround I have tried the following:
- comment out the zapata_additional line in zapata.conf
- start asterisk (amportal start)
- uncomment the zapata_additional line
- reload the config

Which works, but of course is not a viable solution for the long term.

The zapata_additional, as defined by AMP:
