I'm about to upgrade my currently running asterisk server from 1.0.3 to 1.0.6 is there anything I should do before doing the upgrade? I know since I'm using Fedora Core 3 that I must do for Zaptel : make clean then make linux26 and finally make install. Do I have to remove the version 1.0.3 first or only doing install will replace all existing modules without removing my config files? Once I have installed Zaptel 1.0.6 then do I have to do something special to upgrade asterisk from 1.0.3 to 1.0.6? As I have a lot of people using the asterisk server I can't put it down for a long time so I want to be sure I don't make any stupid mistake before doing the upgrade as I don't have time to reinstall everything from scratch if something goes bad. Thanks Martin
I did the upgrade everything went well. Now I hope it fixed my echo problem... When I installed version 1.0.3 I forgot to do make linux26 so maybe my echo problem was coming from that. I'll know soon enough...

Is it neccesary to upgrade Zaptel at the same time as upgrading asterisk. For the second time now, I've had asterisk on a production machine completely freeze (with no messages in any of the log files) and eventually had to be kill -9'd. The machine has a a TDM400 with 1xFXS and 3xFXO cards in it, the most recent time this happened was the day after upgrading to Asterisk 1.2.8 (where I didn't update zaptel at the same time). TIA for any help with this.
