can you set the idle-timeout for those two lines to 2 minutes or such so it
clears itself?

I can't remember the other command(s) we used on the async lines for the
commservers to make sure the line dropped after exiting - If i have time
tonight, I'll look up those old configs.  I'm pretty sure that it *wasn't* a
hardware flow control thing - maybe it was software...
