If you already have configuration files installed in /etc/asterisk/ when you
run the make samples command, .old will be appended to the end of each
of your current configuration files, for example, extensions.conf will be
renamed extensions.conf.old. Be careful, though, because if you run make
samples more than once you will overwrite your original configuration
files!

The make samples command copies the sample configuration file in the Asterisk source files and places it in the /etc/asterisk/directory folder. The sample configuration files allow you to see generic optioning for a variety of configurations.
