Yeah, by hand.  When I first started doing this there was no such  
thing as AMP.  Plus, I've got some wacky dialplan stuff that probably  
wouldn't work out too well with AMP.

Well, if you've got all this stuff and the phones still aren't  
working, I'd say there's either something funny going on with AMP or  
Asterisk.  I would try new/different versions of both.  The rest of  
your configs look good to me.  Maybe somebody else can spot an  
inconsistency?

Just to cover all the bases, have you tried configuring the Polycom  
without AMP?
