OK. I fought with this all day and was getting ready to reboot the machine.
I did a "unload chan_zap.so" and everything unloaded successfuly.
[root at asterisk root]# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
wct1xxp                13856   0
zaptel                182464   4  [wct1xxp]
?? If everything unloaded fine, why is zaptel still holding onto 4 usages?
All day long, I did "lsmod" and the usage went from 4 to 6 to 4 then 12 and
8..on and on. Never went to 0.
But then, it dawned on me. "Lets halt asterisk." Did that and the usage
dropped to 0!
What could (and how could I find out) be holding onto the kernel module like
that? That can't be good.
