Hi,

I looked for asterisk in /usr/sbin using the commands ls and find and whereis 
and it was not there.

I know that the process is killed because when I start asterisk using the 
command asterisk -vvvvc it starts and then it exits and the word killed is 
wrote on the console.

Ever time I copy a new executable to /usr/sbin either using cp command or make 
install it gets deleted too.

Now I used the strace command on asterisk and I can clearly see at the end of 
the strace the line : killed by SIGKILL 
This means that something or someone is actually and purposely killing asterisk 
but I do not know what or who is doing that also I know that I am the only user 
on the system.

Again any indicators to solve this very weird issue are welcomed.

Regards,
Antoine Megalla
