I am about to start my first Asterisk installation and will only be using IP phones (either Snom's or Aastra's), I have a local voip Supplier provisioning 1/2 a dozen did's for me. I am hoping to set this up inside Xen on a CentOS pv guest. I understand from reading old posts since I am not needing any hardware peripheral cards that this should be acceptable. Can I omit the Zaptel and Libpri portions of the install in lieu of not needing the hardware support? Thanks! jlc

But you will need ztdummy if you want to use MeetMe() conferencing, which is part of zaptel. However, libpri would still not be required. If you don't care about conferencing, no zaptel needed. -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web : http://www.evaristesys.com/ Tel : (+1) (678) 954-0670 Direct : (+1) (678) 954-0671 Mobile : (+1) (706) 338-8599
