Thanks for getting back to me, the only reason that I see to move it (and more importantly to move it to /etc/asterisk) is that I am intending to use DRDB to make the machines as identical as possible, and to ensure that the configs of the two machines are kept in-sync.
My mount points for the 3 replicated drives were going to be /etc/asterisk /var and /home (or /users) I cant replicate /etc as things need to be different in some of its child directories (init.d and sysconf are two) (although I guess I could as I'm not intending to replicate /var/spool/ and thats below var) If zaptel.conf moves to /etc/asterisk, it keeps my replication simpler than adding lots of mount points nb - DRDB is a replication technology (laymans term I know) (commonly used with linux-ha) I agree it doesn't belong in /etc/asterisk, but its convient, especially since I know of no other "application" that interfaces with it :) David On 5/16/05, Tony Mountifield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > In article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, > David John Walsh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > One thing gets me, and hopefully someone here can confirm my suspision > > - why is zaptel.conf not with the other asterisk files > > > > (I assume it is because its responsable for bringing up the hardware, > > not strictly part of the asterisk application) > > Yes.
