It looks like your HP configuration is ok.  Most modems come with DTR forced
high (so most PC's can dial out without a lot of handshaking).  You might
want to see if your modems's DTR is set high--if they are, set them to
normal so that the HP3000 will be able to determine when a user is
connected.  When the user disconnects, the DTR will drop from the HP for
a few moments then it will come back on to allow the next user to sign on.
It will also drop any sessions left hanging at the same time.
