Don,
Thanks.
I've got a box that is dedicated only for Asterisk. It has a new Slackware installation and nothing else running.
I installed and build the Digium and Asterisk drivers from source.
I can get the phones to load their configuration via FTP. That works perfectly.
My problem is that I can't seem to get the phone and Asterisk to communicate with each other.
Any ideas??

Dean,
I appreciate the suggestion. Is it really necessary.
I've got slackware already installed on the box. (I consider myself a bit of a Linux guru.), all the drivers, and Asterisk. Everything seems to work fine, EXCEPT getting it to talk to the extension. wouldn't it be easier/faster to just adjust a few settings than to re-initialize my entire box.
Noah,
Dean pointed me towards [EMAIL PROTECTED] too and I too was skeptical at first. I have to say, even though
- I'm still having my Asterisk "issues" (i.e. not everything is working for me)
- and I'm a bit of a Linux guru
- and I had asterisk working with some primitive extensions on my own, pretty much exactly where you are just a smidge further...
I would recommend using [EMAIL PROTECTED] What Dean told me (and I tend to believe him) is that having a box that multi-tasks (i.e. run asterisk and also does some other linux server tasks) is a very bad idea as you will have problems. So, if you go with the premise that your box will an asterisk box and thats it, then using [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not an issue as far as stomping over whatever other Linux setup you have.
I would recommend you give it a try if you can afford to have your current system wiped, just to see what it is like. It certainly takes a lot of the "programming your dialplan" issues away - although there are still plenty of configs to tweak I'm finding.
Next, about your Polycom 500. I've got a couple of those that were working (although I appear to have busted my setup just recently). What I found is that you should tell your phone to not register and then it worked for me.
Do you have your ftp-server set-up and are you using the latest firmware and sip versions?
Don
