You can do it using Caller Groups. Go through your address book and allocate
people into appropriate groups.

Then go to the menu -> Phone book -> Caller groups -> Choose the group then
you can change the Group ringing tone.

Thank you very much for your answer!
I do understand how to set up a ringtone for a Caller Group.
What I was wondering was if I could set up a different ring tone for the
people within a group or even outside the Caller Groups!
My old Nokia 2310 had that function, I could set up a ringtone for each
number in my phonebook ...
I'am wondering also why there is so much going on about tones if you can
only use a different tone for each Caller Group and in this model there are
only 5 Caller Groups. So just 5 different tones we can use?

Yes I think you're right - I can't find an option to add a tone to an
individual, only to a group.

Apart from the 5 groups (which can be renamed) there's also a "No group",
which would include any unknown numbers or people not in groups, so that
makes 6 tones that can be used in total.

Indeed!
6 different ringtones can be set up and not 5!
In the meantime i've seen in the Nokia 6230i an option where you can set up
a new group! And as many as the memory permits ...
I suppose that this is the reason why our 6100 is limited ... due to the
smaller memory! 6 tones is really not enough!
I would not be suprised if Nokia offers more memory to add on or software
to set up more ringtones for more Caller Groups ...
Again Daniel thank you for that 6th tone  !
