But in doing further reading I found this sliver:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+FreeBSD
"Asterisk 1.0.9 is now available via the ports or packages. The FreeBSD port automatically includes the Zaptel driver, and H323 support. If you build the port from source, you can use the WITHOUT_H323 and WITHOUT_ZAPTEL knobs to disable these things."
Leading me to think maybe all I need to do is install asterisk from the ports collection?
But when I initially tried that I could not fetch it correctly:
patrick# make && make install
===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found
=> asterisk-1.0.6.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/.
=> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/.

=> Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this
=> port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/ and try again.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/net/asterisk.
Ok let's try and use pkg_add:
patrick# pkg_add -rv asterisk
looking up ftp.freebsd.org
connecting to ftp.freebsd.org:21
setting passive mode
opening data connection
initiating transfer
Error: FTP Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.4-release/Latest/asterisk.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch 'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.4-release/Latest/asterisk.tbz' by URL
pkg_add: 1 package addition(s) failed
Tried this to make sure pkg_add is not the problem:
patrick# pkg_add -rv apache
Sure enough that worked ok and installed apache.
I did notice that it seems to try and fetch an older version (1.0.6) than the one I tried to install from source (1.0.9). Maybe that has something to do with my issue? Possibly someone besides Alex will chime in.
I'll put on a pot of coffee.

I believe there is not support for zaptel drivers on freebsd just yet. Maybe I'm wrong.

Hello fellow asteriskers (can i say that?)
My name is Brian. I'm looking to setup asterisk on a 1.1GB machine with 256MB of RAM Using an X100P wildcard (clone? i ordered the devices on EBay). When up and running I would like to use this machine with my Vonage VOIP connection. To support my young educational non-profit org -> shameless plug www.parkday.org <http://www.parkday.org/> .
I have been reading about asterisk for about one month now. I have purchased the O'reilly Book "Asterisk: The Future of Telephony" and have read about half of it.
First attempt at running asterisk on FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE resulted in a core dump anytime I tried to run asterisk from the cmd line. Poking around I read somewhere?? that asterisk is not quite ready for 6.0 RELEASE just yet. Upon reading this I went and re-installed the OS with version 5.4 RELEASE.
First thing I did after re-installing my OS is re-copiled my kernel to remove all extraneous devices, everything is ok so far.
Now I downloaded all the asterisk (main sounds addons) source code from digium ftp site placed them in /usr/src.
Then I went into the /usr/ports and installed bison gmake and libpri.
>From there went to the zaptel ports directory to install the zaptel drivers from there... Here's where things start to get sticky?
patrick# make clean && make && make install
install seemed to be completed ok
patrick# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/zaptel.sh start
kldload: can't load %%PREFIX%%/lib/zaptel/zaptel
.ko: No such file or directory
Here's where I'm lost? On my first attempt using 6.0-RELEASE zaptel started up fine at boot time and even recognized both X100P cards?
So I wondered . . . Do I need to install asterisk before I tried to run the zaptel drivers? So I went into /usr/src/asterisk-1.0.10 and ran:
patrick# gmake clean && gmake && gmake install
All seemed to go well there, So I ran:
patrick# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/zaptel.sh start
Which resulted in the same error as before. So now I'm really stumped!
Any assistance with my conundrum would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx
