[Asterisk-Users] HDLC kernel 2.4.26

[Michael A Rowley]

Hello all interested.

Well, I just went through the trials and tribulations of getting hdlc 
working...  it works, I can get to the internet on the asterisk 
machine.  Now all I have to do is get dhcp working... :(

Here is my setup:

Gento 2004.1
2.4.26 gentoo
sethdlc 1.15 downloaded from the generic-hdlc site.
config is as follows

zaptel.conf
nethdlc=21-24

Gentoo uses rc-update system, so these are the scripts in my 
/etc/init.d directory...[] denote the filename

depend() {
	before asterisk
	before hdlc
}

start() {
	ebegin "Installing Modules..."
	/sbin/modprobe ${MODULES}
	einfo "Starting Zaptel Configuration Load..."
	/sbin/ztcfg ${ZAPOPTS}
	eend $?
}

stop() {
	ebegin "Unloading Modules..."
	/sbin/modprobe -r ${MODULES}
	einfo "Zaptel stopped"
	eend $?
}

restart() {
	stop
	start
}

In /etc/conf.d are the following:

[zaptel]

# Config file for /etc/init.d/zaptel

#

# add list of modules that need to be installed for Zaptel interface

MODULES="wct1xxp wcfxs"

# add options to pass to ztcfg below.

ZAPOPTS=""

I hope this helps anyone out there who is battling with this.

Remember, YMMV :)  But, man, this makes me feel like a god!  :)  Well, 
maybe a minor diety.. :)
