Here is the issue:

Here is the background:


I am using the Linux 4 ES Update 2 distro.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.9-22.EL #1 Mon Sep 19
18:20:28 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I am installing zaptel (just to get access to ztdummy)
and asterisk for the first time and this is the first
time that it is being installed on the server in
question.  No PSTN hardware in the server; just a NIC
card -- I will be doing sip to sip calls in a lab
environment.

1.  Before compiling zaptel (the compile of zaptel
looks good to me -- but see below), I configured NTP
on the server so that it would sync to another server
of ours which syncs directly to the NTP server.   I
did this via crontab:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# crontab -l
30 * * * * /usr/sbin/ntpdate -u xxxxxx > /dev/null
2>&1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ntpq
ntpq> host ptn-wee
current host set to xxxxxx.aaaaa.net
ntpq> peers
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach 
 delay   offset  jitter

ntpq>


2.  I Uncommented ztdummy in the zaptel Makefile
before doing the first compile and I left one-space
between ztd-loc and ztdummy.

MODULES:=zaptel tor2 torisa wcusb wcfxo wctdm
wctdm24xxp \
         ztdynamic ztd-eth wct1xxp wct4xxp wcte11xp
pciradio \
         ztd-loc ztdummy

3.  In the compile of zaptel (make, make install, make
config, make clean) I noticed in the make output the
following (not sure if this is a problem or not):

[EMAIL PROTECTED] zaptel-1.2.1]# 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] zaptel-1.2.1]# make
Makefile:178: target `ztdummy.o' given more than once
in the same rule.
~SNIP~
make[1]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-22.EL-i686'

  CC [M]  /usr/src/zaptel-1.2.1/tor2.o
~SNIP~

4.  Making NO edits to the Makefile for asterisk, I
then compiled asterisk (make, make install, make
samples, make progdocs, make config, make clean). 
Looked good.

5.  I then went straight to loading zaptel (having
forgotten to first compile asterisk-sounds (make
install) and asterisk-addons (make install) [side
question: Is it OK to go back and compile sounds and
addons after zaptel is now loaded??])

6.  I loaded zaptel sucessfully, it looks like:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# modprobe zaptel
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# lsmod | grep zaptel
zaptel                206724  0 
crc_ccitt               2113  1 zaptel
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# 


7.  ztdummy, however, does not load:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# modprobe ztdummy
Notice: Configuration file is /etc/zaptel.conf
line 0: Unable to open master device '/dev/zap/ctl'

7.1  I see that i have no zap/ under /dev/:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cd /dev/zap/
-bash: cd: /dev/zap/: No such file or directory

7.2 Per my understanding of the asterisk docs, I
belive I have to solve this ztdummy load issue BEFORE
I attempt to load asterisk for the first time.


Thanks in advance!
