Not sure how good the wildcard > support is though, e.g. if it handles "*" in the middle of a name. Try > it and see :-) Actually, looks like zaptel-* is sufficient and I don't need it in the middle of a name (which should work, IAC, now that I've read the documentation - RTFM...) so I'm covered. Seems to work just fine. Your's wins the prize at the best advice. That seems to have solved a lot of problems as long as I don't run a foul of a dependency like asterisk and spandsp that I did a couple of days ago (broke Asterisk when Spandsp wasn't updated but that wasn't this problem). But it looks like it's got all my bases covered now. Many thanks! > Paul. Mike -- Michael H.
