Greetings I have a couple polycom phones (501 and 601) I'm messing around with and I've noticed something weird. Both phones synchronize their clocks to a central NTP server here on our network and both phones are 11 seconds slow. All of our servers, switches, routers and PCs also sync to this time source and are spot on. Even the budgetone 101 is spot on. Has anyone else experienced this? I know I'm being anal retentive but it's driving me nuts. The phone is getting it's sntp server and offset settings via DHCP and they show correct on the phone. The phone is running v1.6.7 firmware. Thanks -Dave
I haven't but how about adjusting the offset by 11 secs to compensate? Lame I know but then you can go back to counting bricks on the side walk again! j/k :) Bill -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Dave Fullerton Sent: Thursday, October 05, 2006 2:27 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [asterisk-users] OT: Polycom time sync - sorta Greetings I have a couple polycom phones (501 and 601) I'm messing around with and I've noticed something weird.

Read this: http://gpsinformation.net/main/gpstime.htm And let your clock chime the outside world. :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
