Perfect.

Hmmm... nevertheless I have documented this procedure in my Dokuwiki of
the time that I made the installation and compilation:

# tar xvzf dahdi-linux-2.1.0.4.tar.gz
# tar xvzf dahdi-tools-2.1.0.2.tar.gz

~/Asterisk/dahdi-linux-2.1.0.4# make
~/Asterisk/dahdi-linux-2.1.0.4# make install

~/Asterisk/dahdi-tools-2.1.0.2# ./configure
~/Asterisk/dahdi-tools-2.1.0.2# make menuselect   # In order to select a customized configuration
~/Asterisk/dahdi-tools-2.1.0.2# make
~/Asterisk/dahdi-tools-2.1.0.2# make install
~/Asterisk/dahdi-tools-2.1.0.2# make config       # In order to install scripts and config files

Thanks. I will consider it if I install this package of DAHDI.


Thanks for your reply.
