[Asterisk-Users] Fritz, mISDN, Help

[Jörg Wolf]

Derek,

I've got up to 3 Fritz cards (of different types) up and running on my debian sarge (2.6.8 kernel).

That's how it should work:
- build and install mISDN and chan_misdn from the current install-misdn.tar.gz which can be downloaded from http://www.beronet.com/download/
- use the chan_misdn and change /etc/asterisk/misdn.conf according to your special config
- be sure that no capi modules are loaded
- do "/etc/init.d/misdn-init config" to automatically create /etc/misdn-init.conf
- start the cards: "/etc/init.d/misdn-init start"
- start your * and check if chan_misdn.so started properly

Hope it helps

Cheers
Jörg
