1. Does your asterisk instance run as user "silentm"?

2. What happens if you add the "-f" parameter to the "rm" command in the 
dialplan?

3. What does "sudo -u asteriskuser rm /tmp/test.incoming.txt" do, if you run 
it as the root user, and substituting whichever user your asterisk instance 
runs as in place of "asteriskuser"?
