Greetings to all list members!

My name is Aldo Sudak and I am an Asterisk newbie. I am writing now because I have not 
been able to find any mention to the issues described below, neither in this list nor in the wiki.

I am performing preliminary tests with Asterisk 1.4.11 and Zaptel 1.4.5.1 on Fedora Core 6. 
Installation of all of the Asterisk packages was straightforward and I always obtained success 
messages. Following Asterisk and Zaptel installation I ran the corresponding make config 
commands in order to have both Asterisk and Zaptel running at startup. With Zaptel, however, 
two issues arose:

1) zaptel.conf in the /etc/ directory had not been created. The GUI loaded itself a very rudimentary 
zaptel.conf file which lacked loadzone and defaultzone definitions, so I prefered to manually copy 
and paste zaptel.conf.sample from the sources and rename it.

2) Zaptel modules loaded during bootup but were not automatically configured, and so I had to 
manually run ztcfg and afterwards restart Asterisk each time I started the computer. I discovered 
that there did not exist a 'zaptel' file in the /etc/modprobe.c/ directory, so I made an experiment 
by installing Zaptel 1.4.4, which generated the file, and then re-installing Zaptel 1.4.5.1. The 
experience was successful and now Zaptel 1.4.5.1 is loaded and configured during bootup.

Anyhow , I think all these manipulations should not be necessary, and I would like to know if I did 
something wrong in order for all this to be happening.

Suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Aldo
