Hindsight being 20/20, this may have been better. Although on the off chance that anyone is interested, the line of thought was to lump in all the changes that would require people to touch their configuration files, be it name changes, layouts, etc.., in order to reduce the number of times they had to think about their Zaptel / DAHDI configuration files. If you're already going through the process of renaming your files and scripts, might as well make all the changes when you upgrade as opposed to keep having to make modifications in stages. That was the thought anyway. _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
