asterisk users - Feb 2006 - FC4 and yum install; how to configure questions

I installed FC4, ran command, # yum install asterisk.  A bunch of stuff 
happened, but can't locate .conf files.  I have a list of files:

This setup allowed me to run the command:
# /usr/sbin/asterisk -vvvvc
A bunch of stuff happens, then the prompt returns to the root command. 

I'm reading the asterisk book (just started Ch 4), and when I go looking 
for a .conf file, it doesn't exist. 
Any help appreciated.
Tom

Hi Tom!

Read the book!

Those files are sample configuration files. You can copy them to /etc/asterisk
dir without ".sample" at end (example - sip.conf).

Also, you can do "cd /usr/src/asterisk-1.2.4/" and "make
sample". That way Asterisk will copy some example files to your
/etc/asterisk/ dir.

Read the book!
