Thanks for that idea; that should be even easier to do here, because we
live in 10-digit land and have two overlapping area codes, which means
all local numbers start with 303 or 720.

But this will teach me not to mention more than one topic in a message,
because I still have not solved the original problem with ssh breaking
when the zaptel drivers are loaded and most of the discussion has been
about the side topic of dialing 9 to get out. Even worse, I discovered
that the same problem affects racoon/ipsec-tools as well; I get racoon
errors in the log about hash mismatches and messages too short. Unload
the zaptel drivers, and the tunnel is established immediately. I was
hoping to work around the ssh problem by using an IPSEC tunnel to a
known secure remote location, but then I run into another variant of the
same problem. This is a large brick wall that I cannot get past, so I
have to choose between being able to remotely access my home systems and
using asterisk to handle incoming PSTN calls. Given the amount of money
I spent on the Digium card and the fact that I really do need to be able
to access home systems remotely when on travel, this isn't an attractive
choice.

On a possibly related note, I find that I cannot build the Zaptel
drivers at all on newer FC6 kernels. I am running 2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6
now, and zaptel builds and installs fine (other than breaking anything
that uses rsa when loaded )-:  If I boot into 2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 and try
to build zaptel 1.4.0, I get compile errors (I did check the obvious,
and yes, the kernel-devel-2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 package is installed):
