[Asterisk-Users] Strange Zaptel issue

[Carlos Alperin]

Before to do anything else, upgrade your FC5. It is known issues with older
FC5 versions where zaptel doesn't create a device. I suffer that on the
past.

Just run "yum update", then start everything again.

By the way, if you finish with make config after make install, it is going
to install all that you need as a service. All that you have to do is modify
zaptel file on etc/sysconfig to load the device that you use.

Regards,

Carlos Alperin

Greets all sorry for the posting but this one has me confused. I
compiled Zaptel and am
experiencing something strange. I followed the instructions on
README.udevs to the tee,
set permissions, etc. and I'm confused as to what gives. Zaptel
compiled without a
problem but no device was made....
