Issue resolved (paid support). The TE110P and TDM400P cards were not  
fully configured causing a timing problem. Unloading the modules  
fixed the problem, then with a proper configuration of the cards all  
is working. I knew I caused the problem, but was too blind to see how  
to fix it:)

Thanks for listening and I am looking forward to loosing the newbie  
status.
