Can any one help.
What do you mean “as a service”? You don’t seem to be running Windows? If you are using one of distributions that use /etc/rc.d/init.d/, try make config in Asterisk to install some RC files and hope they work. If not, create your own RC file in appropriate directories. Generally speaking, you should not have to modprobe manually if you have installed zaptel correctly.
in both Asterisk and Zaptel source directories, “make config” will install the appropriate init scripts to be able to run them “as a service”. then you just need to configure them with chkconfig
