I have placed the patched libcapi20 sources (libcapi20.tgz) on the public 
ftp server ftp://isdn4linux.org/pub/capi4linux

It works pretty good with the rcapid (bintec-router emulator) on the remote 
side. I never tested it with a real bintec router, because I don't have one.
Maybe it will not work with the real hardware, because the authentification
is not implemented yet.
This libcapi20 support normal /dev/capi20 and the remote version, just 
create a file ~/.capi20rc to set the remote station. See README.

You can also use one Linux Server running CAPI cards with rcapid and have 
your Asterisk/OpenPBX with chan_capi on another maschine...
