Good one, Martin... Glad someone is on the ball, I was being lazy :)

You configure zaptel.conf since zaptel interface drives the boards. In
general you can configure the hardware part (dchannels, clear channels -
dchannel needs to be run in HDLC mode, circuit timing, framing, etc)

Zapata.conf belongs to asterisk and you need to tell asterisk which
channels to use and what signalling to configure it with.

Your config will propably be:

zaptel.conf
span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs
span=2,0,0,esf,b8zs
bchan=1-23
dchan=24
fxoks=25-48
loadzone=us
defaultzone=us

zapata.conf
[channels]
signalling=pri_cpe
switchtype=national
group = 1
context = incoming
channel => 1-23

signalling=fxo_ks
group = 2
context = internal
callerid = <1000>
channel => 25-48

Notice that I skipped many other settings that you propably need to
familiarise yourself with (look in zapata.conf.sample)

Can anyone explain to me the difference in zaptel.conf and zapata.conf?
I'm trying to get a real clear understanding of them but its getting a
little murky in places.  I will be setting up a PBX running asterisk with
2 T100P cards.  I will be bringing a 23 channel PRI into one card and
connecting the other card to a Nortell 24 channel FXS channel bank.  As I
understand it zapata.conf is how I configure my channels much like
IAX.conf or SIP.conf.  Where I'm a bit confused is I think I'm
understanding it configures the PRI channels but the channel bank channels
as well.  Would this be correct? If this is the case how does zaptel.conf
come in to play? If I'm understanding it correctly, zaptel.conf is used to
configure the T100 cards?  I'm a little bit lost here.  What exactly would
I be configuring here?  Just telling it what type of cards they are? Sorry
for such stupid questions but I'm a telephony newbie.  Taking a big plunge
here. I'm going straight from kindergarden to college.  Again thanks all.
