Using Asterisk in Debian to set up Conference Calling
I have a Debian Etch server running asterisk
I am trying to set up conference calling with the MeetMe command.
However when ever I enter an extension which uses this command,
everything falls apart and asterisk ends up exiting
My meetme.conf
[general]
[rooms]
conf => 61
conf => 62
conf => 63
conf => 63
My extensions.conf
exten => 60,1,Answer()
exten => 60,2,MeetMe(,EMxp)
When I enter extension 60 I enter a conference - I get repeated
"you are entering conference 6 1 that is not a valid conference number
you are entering conference 6 1" etc
CPU load rises to near 100% from mpeg123 and asterisk has exited. This
seems to be the same if I take the M of the options (ie no music on
hold).
It appears to be something related to the the zap device

I presume, being the Debian binary package, that I don't have the
ztdummy driver installed. On the otherhand I read in viop-info.org
that that wasn't necessary with Linux 2.6 (I am running 2.6.18).
Where do I go from here?
