Ken, Im having problems with the time on my polycoms, it doesn't matter
which sntp server and offset I enter, the phone wont take the offset into
account, Ive tried entering it directly on the phone and also on the .cfg
file but no luck, any tips?

|Yeah, the Polycoms *do* take a while to boot -- but not five minutes.
|I've timed mine (Polycom 501's) and it's 1:25. Ain't exactly
|zippy, but for something that only reboots when I'm servicing
|it, it's acceptable.
|Aside from that, I really dig the Polycom phones: good looks,
|good audio, good menuing. [Note: the x01's are a fair
|improvement over the x00's, which took a smidge longer to
|boot, and had not-as-nice menus and overall look-and-feel.]
|As for someone complaining that you had to hand-edit the XML
|files, instead of using a nice GUI... guess what:
|that's what scripting is for. I can tell you that I'll spend
|15 minutes to write a script, and be able to spawn it onto 50
|phones in ten seconds ANY DAY over having to fire up a browser
|to those same 50 phones. And God help you if you had a "real"
|number of phones to change.
|
|For that matter, some day I'll get off my lazy a** and write
|something that talks to the dhcpd.leases file and
|auto-provisions new phones.
