The wanpipe-compile script on my x64 servers running sangoma a101e's leaves wanpipe without TDM support or at least the inability to access it. Fresh install of 4.0.1 doesnt matter if zypper refresh && zypper up is run I tried it both ways.

Through trial and error as well as my past experience getting wanpipe compiled and working I was able to rewrite it a bit to get it to install everytime on any system I had here to throw it at. All I did was add compiling DAHDI and also changed the compile command for wanpipe. I prefer compiling dahdi-linux-complete-2.6.1+2.6.1, at least that is what works for me. I also added an option to specify the number of processes to use to compile dahdi as it can take awhile. I will be throwing 60 seats at 4.0.1 with all the agents on analog channel banks driven by a sangoma a101e's. This is the script I am using. Hope this helps someone else.

echo
echo "Wanpipe should now be installed. Verify by running wanrouter hwprobe"
echo
echo "If haven't already run wancfg_dahdi to configure your T1's for DAHDI"

Also for some reason my asterisk would not start due to something in the /etc/asterisk/capi.conf after properly compiling wanpipe/dahdi. Anyone know if this is needed? It appears to be an older CHAN_ISDN protocol or the like... I just renamed the conf for now and everything appears to be working..

FYI,
My latest 60 seat call center is running 4.0.1 x64 up and running with only one minor config issue which with William and Matt's courteous help I was able to track down. Its using 3 servers with 1 sangoma a101e each configured to FXS Channel banks for the agents using standard telephone keypads and headsets, 3 outbound SIP telephony servers, dedicated database and dedicated web server. Everything is working great. I have run it up to 20:1 and everything runs perfect now.

While 4.0.1 still has its installation quarks I really like it over Vicibox 3.XXX.
