Well,the thing is that there is no current official HP product that
will allow one to establish a 'VT' connection from a 3000 to a 9000.
For the V's, one can try the Wollongong offering which will give you
Telnet/FTP/etc... For the XL's you need to wait for "Telnet/XL"
(actually, it uses the DTC but... ;-) Which will provide a solution
whereby the DTC takes an incomming Telnet connection and turns it into
a 'DTC connection' to the XL hosts system. Outbound connections would
be established from/by the DTC. The stated advantage of this method is
to off-load the character stream processing onto the DTC, freeing the
XL host to to useful work.

Your friendly neighborhood sales rep should have some more information
about the DTC/Telnet solution for XL.

As always, we can only talk about things official here ;-)
