Asterisk will /always/ read from the config files, even if you have 
RealTime configured.  To the best of my knowledge, you can't disable 
Asterisk reading the .conf files, though this shouldn't be a problem - 
just leave the .conf files empty of configuration.  When RealTime is 
configured, Asterisk will use /both/ data sources.
