Btw I just noticed there is no bootrom.ver file in this zip folder. http://www.freedomphones.net/polycom/files/SoundPointIP_BootROM_2_6_2.zi p Could this be why this version is failing?

Though, I'm now considering switching to HTTP provisioning so that I can actually dynamically create Polycom configurations from a MySQL database. At the moment, its all vaporware, but its a nice idea. :) -- National Manager - Special Projects < Sydney / Melbourne / Canberra / Hobart / London /> 2/340 Gore Street T: +61 (0) 3 9235 5400 Fitzroy, VIC F: +61 (0) 3 9235 5444 3065 W: http://www.squiz.net ..... > > Open Source - Own It - Squiz.net ...... />
We had some problems with the FTP server on our Windows 2003 server - we worked with it quite a bit, but just could not get the Pollycom's to access it. It did work with backup up our Switchvox PBX. We use Bulletproof FTP server in the Windows world. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Dean Collins Sent: Sunday, October 08, 2006 12:46 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [asterisk-users] ftp server Whats the best ftp server to upload Polycom phone cfg's from?

We also have SBS2003 - we initially had ISA running on it, but decided it was not worth the grief at our office. In the back of my mind, I was wondering if ISA was causing the problem. I had used Bulletproof in the past, since it has bandwidth throttling - and it just seems to work fine. Unfortunately, it does not run as a service - but I found another product that allows it run as a service. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Dean Collins Sent: Sunday, October 08, 2006 12:30 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [asterisk-users] ftp server Yep, using sbs 2003 here.

Yes, we don't have the proper skillset, either. Even though we are a reseller. We have standardized on Linux appliances called Snapgear . Of course, they are not integrated into Active directory, so there are lots of things that are harder to do. However, since they are not Microsoft or Cisco based, they are not the targets of many of the severe attacks on the Internet. We also have problems with installing all the security updates on the scores of Small Business Customers we have - they don't want to pay us for installing these updates - much less, paying us when a security update has side effects on their internal network. So, avoiding the whole Microsoft issue is a decent compromise in our situation. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Dean Collins Sent: Sunday, October 08, 2006 1:16 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [asterisk-users] ftp server Unfortunately I disagree with you about ISA, whilst it may cause problems through my lack of skillset from time to time the functionality it introduces and protects my network cant be beat at any price, being built into sbs 2003 is just a bonus.

i use seperate user id's for the phones (makes it easier than to have all
the configs in one dir). Works wonders. and for all you windows lovers..... Time
