Creating the link was the answer!  Even when I installed the RPM the
link in /lib/modules was not created.

After make all, make install, and make config DAHDI will not start.
in the /drivers/dahdi folder I only have dahdi_dummy.c
All the other files have .ko .mod.c .o etc
Is this related?

[root at ip-97-74-119-59 dahdi-linux-complete-2.3.0.1+2.3.0]# dahdi_cfg -vvvvv
DAHDI Tools Version - 2.3.0
Notice: Configuration file is /etc/dahdi/system.conf
line 0: Unable to open master device '/dev/dahdi/ctl'

1 error(s) detected

The only warning I see is "WARNING: could not find
/usr/src/asterisk/dahdi-linux-complete-2.3.0.1+2.3.0/linux/drivers/dahdi/vpmadt032_loader/.vpmadt032_x86_32.o.cmd
for /usr/src/asterisk/dahdi-linux-complete-2.3.0.1+2.3.0/linux/drivers/dahdi/vpmadt032_loader/vpmadt032_x86_32.o"

Does that ring a bell with any one?
