More specifically: sethdlc(-new) is a binary that is not often used by
Zaptel users. When it is used, it must be used by root.
Zaptel includes a sample network setup script to start a network
interface on a data T1 interface from a data PRI line connected to a
Zaptel adapter. That sample script surely won't work as-is (it runs
sethdlc rather than sethdlc-new). It is not installed by default on
Debian.
As aparant from the lack of man page for sethdlc-new, I still have not
figured out exactly what this program is supposed to do and how to use
it. I figure that if a certain user will actually complain that it
doesn't work and have a proper setup to test it, I might be able to
check things out.
Right now I suspect that this is basically rather theorethical.
