I’m seeing a lot of files like the ones below on. Can someone help me understand how & why these are being created. I’m clueless.

I’ve masked the original DID number with 9999999999

A call was placed from extension 1006 to the external phone number 9999999999 on the 22nd of April 2020 at 08:38:40 and was the 2457th call placed to an external call since the last system reboot.

What else do you need?

44 byte recordings are calls that don’t get answered. They are 0 second call duration recordings.

Thanks @cynjut I’m now wondering why do I have lots of 44byte files.
I hope my server is not compromised.

@lgaetz Thanks. Let me investigate this further and check why I have so many of such files. I guess it could also be a misconfiguration. Though I have take all case when setting up FreePBX but I’m sure something is going on. Not sure what and where.
