Perhaps my thinking on this issue is wrong.  Do we need to keep up with all the 
latest upgrades? I am thinking to install this thing and let it run for a long 
time (I would hope with very little need to touch it.)  We are not a feature 
hungry shop, just looking for basic phone system for 60 people that works for a 
reasonable cost.

I was using the older software because I wanted to follow the documentation in 
the book as close as possible to maximize the benefit of using the book.  Once 
I feel like I know what I am doing I can do another install with latest 
software and update my tutorial.

My only suggestions if you're starting from scratch...
* go ahead and start with asterisk-1.6 and dahdi. asterisk-1.4 and
zaptel are feature-frozen.

I would also second the notion of going with CentOS 5 as opposed to CentOS 4.

If the whole point of your upgrade is to avoid having to do another
upgrade it would be a good idea to use newest current versions of the
software in question.
