I'm not sure what would be enough to provide timing, but you can easily try
by accessing a meetme without a timing source :)


- Load the module, test if that is sufficient
- Edit /etc/zaptel.conf to provide info about the card, execute ztcfg and
test again
- Edit zapata.conf to provide info about the card, test again.

I am assuming chan_zap was already built for asterisk, it should do that
automatically when it detects the libraries. You will need to restart
asterisk every step (reloading does not cover Zaptel)

Best regards,
