I have used MacTerminal and QDial to establish a connection before
running Telnet.  I do have to quit the term program to prevent it from
fighting for the serial port, but the line is not dropped.  I suspect
that you need to change the DTR setting on your modem so that it doesn't
drop the connection.  Then, you should be able to dial with Kermit or
FreeTerm, quit and then run Telnet.
 
It sure would be nice if someone hacked a dialing utility into the Cisco
hacked Telnet.  Oh well, what can we expect for nothing? :)
