+Zaptel PERL modules
+-------------------
+The directory xpp/utils has, in addition to helper utilities for the
+Xorcom Astribank, a collection of perl modules to provide information
+related to Zaptel. The perl modules themselves are under xpp/utils/zconf .
+In xpp/utils there are several utilities that use those modules:
+- xpp-specific: zt_registration, xpp_sync, xpp_blink .
+- General: lszaptel, zapconf, zaptel_hardware
+
+Those utilities require the perl modules to be installed, however they
+will also look for them in the directory zconf, and thus can be run
+directly from the zaptel source tree. For example:
+
+ ./xpp/utils/zaptel_hardware
-Note:
-See
-http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+Zaptel+Installation
-for more verbose and updated version of this document.
+The modules and utilities are not installed by default in this version
+of zaptel . In order to get them installed, you need do the following
+before running 'make install': remove the '#' in the line that sets
+PERLLIBDIR in xpp/utils/Makefile . This can be done by e.g.:
-Requirements:
- Some of the testing programs still require the zapata library
- The zttool program requires libnewt
+ sed -i -e 's/^#\(PERLLIBDIR\)/\1/' xpp/utils/Makefile
-To install:
- check zconfig.h for any specific configuration changes
- make
- make install
+To get usage information on a program, you can also use perldoc
+(sometimes provided in a package separate from perl itself). For

-receive "FATAL: Error insering zaptel (/lib/modules/2.6.x.x/misc/zaptel.ko):

-A. You need to recompile your kernel with CONFIG_CRC_CCITT=y or
-CONFIG_CRC_CCITT=m. To do this, run 'make menuconfig' and change it under
-'Library Routines -> CRC-CCIT functions'. If you compiled it as a module,
