"To get the full documentation and recent firmware releases for these phones go to this website: http://www.freedomphones.net/polycom/files/ (cache)
The firmware files also contain some default configuration files that you can use as a base of configuring your phones. "
Ah ha! There's the files you want!
I used proftpd for my ftp server. It was pretty easy. I don't know about your uppercase problem. But you can change the user name and password on your phone. On the page (read it please) it says,
"To get into the Admin interface on the hardphone the password is '456'"
I think you can change your user name to whatever you want there.
You can use vi to edit the xml files. Just be careful. I screwed mine up with pico and it took me forever to figure out where my mistake was.
And the docs aren't lacking. It's just that the Polycom folks made them very hard to find. They want phone jockeys to work on these things and not hackers like us. The manual they have is very extensive and you can download it at either their web site or the same site referenced above.

Try following the instructions atThe problem is I don't seem to have a reference to the format of that file or what options I can put in it. Some docs I've looked at reference the distribution.zip file as having some default templates. However the Polycom cd that came w/ the phone has not such zip file.. :( I'll need that zip file, any ideas on where to get it.

I think you don't have your MACADDRESS.cfg file set right. I've never used the web interface.
Also upon looking things over I setup a ftp server BUT the RH9 box I was running would NOT add user named 'PlcmSpIp' in. Upper case letters just wouldn't work. So I put in the user 'plcmspip' and then manually put in the upper case letters in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow...
In the future I 'should' be able to change that to something other then the default values. I've search over the menus(pressing menu, settings, authentication) gave the a 'reg user' and password. I changed that to
user: 110 password: test
but the 0004f200b70e-boot.log still says its using u=PlcmSpIp pw=PlcmSpIp to log in. Ideas on how to fix that?
If it still doesn't work after that, write back.Sorry - the Cisco phones had cruddy docs to. While the polycom phone itself looks better, better display, more buttons, better menus - the docs are still lacking..
John
P.S. Make sure you use a good xml editor when fixing up the cfg files.
Have any suggestings? I've always used vi....
