Thanks - genzaptelconf worked well for the analog card in the test system
here. I'll have to wait until I have the PRI to try it with that.

I also played around with simply manually configuring the system before
using the web interface. I will post up what I tried here in case it might
help someone else. I found that I could get the analog card to work with
asterisk-gui under Fedora by adding entries to the zapscan.conf.

For example my /etc/zaptel.conf contains:

	fxsks=4
	fxoks=1

and my /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf contains something like:

	context = demo
	signaling=fxo_ks
	channel => 1

	context = demo
	signaling=fxs_ks
	channel => 4

So I then put the following into zapscan.conf:

	[1]
	port=fxo
	[4]
	port=fxs

I don't know if this soft of work-around can be applied to digital cards but
it seemed to work for analog cards. However, using genzaptelconf was very
strait forward.
