To delete files older than 32 days in the Asterisk recording and voicemail folder, you can use the find command along with the rm command. The following command should work for you: bash code: sudo find /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/ -name 'msg??????.*' -type f -mtime +32 -exec rm {} \; sudo find /var/spool/asterisk/monitor/ -type f -mtime +32 -exec rm {} \; To create a weekly cron job to perform the deletion, you can use the crontab command to add an entry in the user's cron file. The following command should work for you: code: sudo crontab -u meladmin -e Then, add the following line to the file: bash code: 0 0 * * 0 sudo find /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/ -name 'msg??????.*' -type f -mtime +32 -exec rm {} \; && sudo find /var/spool/asterisk/monitor/ -type f -mtime +32 -exec rm {} \; This will perform the deletion every Sunday at midnight. To be able to modify and delete files created by Asterisk, you need to have proper permissions on the directory where the files are stored. Make sure the user meladmin is in the asterisk and wheel groups. To modify the user meladmin, you can use the following command: css code: sudo usermod -a -G asterisk,wheel meladmin I hope this helps you solve the problem!
