Hi Michael, Thanks for the reply. I guess my question is really how best to routinely run a SIP PCAP on all incoming/outgoing calls, for later analysis if necessary. I have a provider that offers this and have found it useful for troubleshooting isolated problems. I'm not worried about deleting SIP capture files. I'm just uncertain how to create them. Dan Hi Dan, I use this line in "rc.local" to start sngrep in the background in a screen session and store the .pcap files in "/mnt/kd/sngrep/" /usr/bin/screen -dmS sngrep /usr/bin/sngrep -c -O /mnt/kd/sngrep/$(date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H%M").pcap The "-c" is important so it only reports on calls, no options, notifies and so on. On high traffic systems that can eat up a lot of RAM over time, so I kill sngrep with a cronjob in the night and start it again also to get daily reports. killall sngrep && .... You can read the .pcap files then later with sngrep within AstLinux again and search for issues. Hi Michael, This is perfect. Thank you for the guidance. I particularly appreciate the extra explanation and cronjob advice. I'll give all of this a try and report any useful findings. Although I've been an AstLinux user since version 0.4.5, I recognize that this qualifies as a NOOB question. Thanks for restraining the laughter, everyone! Best wishes, Dan
