Hi Brian -

I'm just trying to get my Polycom 601 to have multiple extensions on it.  For 
example, on
line 1 I want extension 21, on line 2 I want extension 22, and on line 3 I want 
extension
23.  Ideally I'd actually have each extension appear on 2 lines and therefore 
filling up all
6.  I should be able to do that with the reg.x.lineKeys parameter.  Anyway, I'm 
not even at
the point of getting multiple registrations to work, so I'll worry about that 
later.  Right now
the only thing that works is registering the first extension – it registers 
just fine and works
as expected.  No matter what extension I put on there it works, but I only have 
line 1
working.  What am I doing wrong?

As you suggest, the key to your solution is in one of the lines that
Bill posted:

reg.1.lineKeys="6"

This will give you six identical keys, each registered to one sip
address.  For what you want to do (three different sip registrations,
each one with two keys), you'll need to change this line on each of
the registrations (and I'll suggest to add the "callsPerLineKey") to
look like this:

reg.1.lineKeys="2"
reg.1.callsPerLineKey="1"     (disables dumb polycom call-waiting "feature")

and later in the second reg:

reg.2.lineKeys="2"
reg.2.callsPerLineKey="1"

and finally (as you may have already guessed):

reg.3.lineKeys="2"
reg.3.callsPerLineKey="1"


The other parameters you'll need to change to get a registration to work are:

reg.x.address=""
reg.x.auth.userId=""
reg.x.auth.password=""
reg.x.server.1.address=""  (unless you want to use the default
specified in sip.cfg)

You can leave all the other parameters as defaults.

And as far as a "bare-bones" config - don't do it.  Use the factory
default configs that came with your firmware files and just customize
as necessary.  Don't take anything out of them.  The phone will do
weird things if you leave out some of it's necessary XML config
options, and that's probably why you're having trouble getting
multiple registrations to work.  If you don't have the standard sample
configs, just let me know, and I can send them to you.
