 	Will show the user a whole bunch of entries or even doing the same 
search at http://www.voip-info.org/ would probably be better .
 	This would have been a better response .

 	No ,  As far as I can tell .  'modules show' shows you the WHOLE list of 
available modules NOT just the ones in use .  At least that is what appears to 
be shown when I issue that command line .  when I do the 'module reload ?' 
trick I see those that match my asterisk/*.conf entries .

 	Now as far as the user was concerned the second one mentioned above 
would have shown him that it was either loaded or not .

 	And either of those lines is what the OP/User was looking for .
