hi,
chan_dahdi is some kind of "generic" config file, and dahdi-channels the config file where you configure your channels... so to say hardware specific. dahdi-channels.conf is normally a generated file which in turn is included by chan-dahdi... it makes sense to me to divide dahdi channel config in two files... but as one of them is included by the other you could merge them by hand... but remember you have then to edit it yourself if your hardware configuration changes (e.g. after adding a new card, as it was in your case...) so if your analog card requires drivers, install them or look in you /etc/dahdi/modules if you disabled the loading of the module for your newly added card. after this run dahdi_genconf and all should be set up atomagically...
regards,
yves

Hey, all. Just added an analog card to our dual-T1 system... and clearly I'm doing something wrong. Less interested in having the specifics pointed out than in finding out how/why certain things work. So, really, three things:

* What the bloody Hell is the difference between dahdi-channels.conf and chan_dahdi.conf? (And who thought it was a good idea to have two files with, apparently, different functionality, but very similar names?)

* If I'm getting power to my analog phones, but no dial tone, which file should I be editing?

* Likewise (and almost certainly related) if dahdi_cfg shows the channels, but "dahdi show channels" only shows my T1 spans, which file should I be editing?

Could someone point me to some sample analog configs? Most of my searches have wound me up with GUI folks, and I'm just doing good ol-fashioned hand editing on an Ubuntu system.

Thanks!

-Ken
