[Freeswitch-users] Installation: good, but some issues

[David Baggett]

In case it may benefit other Astribank users:

One thing I had to do was "manually" download the firmware to the device 
on bootup. I've seen the devices get confused and lose their firmware, 
so I'm keeping an eye on that. In any case, I made a simple RedHat 
service wrapper that takes care of firmware reseting and uploading using 
the xpp_fxloader script that's part of the zaptel source.

See below for the text of the script. It should go in 
/etc/init.d/astribank. You'll need to

% chkconfig --add astribank

as well. If you run it manually after bootup, you'll need to

% service stop zaptel

before doing so, and

% service restart zaptel

afterwards.
