You don't need install-udev there:

grep zap /etc/udev/rules.d/*

Just remove your file. Add asterisk to the group 'dialout' or edit
020_permissions.rules to use have:

SUBSYSTEM=="zaptel",  USER="asterisk"

instead of:

SUBSYSTEM=="zaptel",                   GROUP="dialout"

The default mode is already 0660, so no need to set it explicitly.


I recommend that you remove /etc/udev/rules.d/zaptel , as I'm not sure
if it actually gets activated.

Asterisk running as root?

Bad!

But in the case the permissions on the udev files don't really matter.
