OK, thanks for the clarification. It’s fairly close to what I had put together in my mind the last five years. Where I go off center is (and I’m no programmer, I’m sure this has a reason)  when/why isn’t the set of drivers just a part of Asterisk. Since it seems that It needs those drivers and the drivers are for Asterisk (or do they also work with other systems?)
 
OK, Doug and all, thanks for some clarification.

Subject: [App_rpt-users] What is Dahdi?

OK, not being a wise-ass, not trying to be stupid, that part’s covered. Just trying to understand.
 
 
What are the specific functions of:
 
Dahdi
Asterisk
Libpri
Zaptel
 
I know they are all part of the whole package, and that whole package still has me in awe. But being very curious type I wanted to know how this all comes together.
 
In my simple mind I axe: why isn’t Asterisk enough? I know what that one is, but as I use app_rpt daily I wish I knew which of the above are providing what part of the overall system.
