With care, you can edit your /etc/inittab entry to make getty
toggle DTR after a certain amount of time if it sees no incoming
characters while running login. HDB forgets to hang up on its end
when dialing into the 3b1. I suggest 60 seconds for the timeout
value. Here is what the inittab entry should look like:
ph1:2:respawn:/etc/getty -t60 ph1 1200

Be careful when editing inittab. The warnings are there for a
reason. See the man page on getty for further details. You should
reboot after making the change to ensure that inittab gets reread.
You could try telinit q and then kill the getty on ph1, but I feel
safer rebooting.
