One of the problems with Distinctive Ring tones is that its not consistent, between different phones so if you have a mix of phone types you have a problem. Quite a lot seam to follow the Bellcore stand says the rhythmn of the ring tone, but not the tune, so Bellcore-dr2 might be long long short and bellcore-dr3 might be short short. A type or Morse code I guess... But its hard work to notice the difference in a hurry when you need to answer the phone, hence its not normally enough. In an ideal world you should be able to send the ring tone with the call so sending a URL or embedding it in the sip header, but I've not heard any method to do this.....
