As Asterisk has inner problems and channels very often locks we have such
script to restart Asterisk each midnight.
We (our clients) mostly use v1.4.18.1. We can't upgrade to newer versions
because there are too much changes which would brake our system
(realtime/sip/iax2/cdr/etc/etc).
Script soft hangups all alive channels in dirty way then kills Asterisk and
starts it up.
Hope it will be useful to somebody.
Corrections/comments welcome.
