I just bought a new server from Dell and an 8-port analog telephony card from Digium. Upon installing AsteriskNow with FreePBX the analog card was not recognized in FreePBX.
Following the suggestions of Digium support and some forum users, I performed a CentOS update using yum update and updated the core module in FreePBX.
The card is now recognized and shows that DAHDI version 2.8.0.1 is now being used. The only problem is, that is sees them as FXS ports instead of FXO ports.
I confirmed with Digium support that Asterisk is seeing them as FXO ports.

If dahdi_scan sees them as FXS then there is not much we can do (they are being seen as FXS!). The module uses dahdi_scan to work. You’ll need to bring that one up with Digium
Yah, it looks like the wrong card was put in the correct package. I got 2 cards the exact same way, so they are taking both of them back and sending me the correct ones.
