While researching a way to try and send files to a user’s Recycle Bin from a batch script, I came across this one liner either at StackExchange or SuperUser forums somewhere. FYI, there is no way natively to send something to the trash without using a VB script or some third party utility. Yes you can physically move the files into the C:\$Recycle.Bin\<UsersSID> folder, but the files will not show up in Explorer and won’t be removed when you empty the trash that way.

Bash Script – Log Concurrent Asterisk Calls to MySQL and Other Useful One-Liners
Here is a quick and dirty bash script I threw together today to log the concurrent calls for each of my long distance trunks in Asterisk to a MySQL database to be able to quickly analyze usage trends. Sure there is probably other open-source software out there that can do this and give pretty little graphs and what not (cdr-stats or maybe queue metrics come to mind), but where’s the fun in that?

Show all active SIP Calls on a single trunk
asterisk -x "core show channels verbose" | grep "^SIP/yourSIPTrunkName-"
Show concurrent number of SIP Calls on a single trunk
asterisk -x "core show channels verbose" | grep -c "^SIP/yourSIPTrunkName-"
Show all active DAHDI calls on channels 1-24
