For future I would highly recommend to have at least fail2ban installed.
This way sipvicous IPs will be blocked instantly before they could create

We took a pretty nasty hit one time, a system administrator didnt listen to
us about changing the passwords. Luckily they took part of the blame in
that, and we split the 1800$ it cost us in half. We could have changed
them, and she didnt change them, so we were both at fault.

Hi,
Embarrassed as I am to write this, I am hoping for some advice. One of

Jeff,
I suggest talking to your PSTN/VoIP provider. We had a large amount going
through TATA communications and have not accepted their word for payment
because they had a duty to not allow traffic if our credit went down to $1k
while the calls charged were actually more than that.
