(PM) new pm3 user

We have just setup a couple pm3's (ComOS 3.8b15) and have a few
questions:

1. We have purchased a 768K connection to our ISP, basically they have
only 6 channels turned on their CSU/DSU. How do we tell the pm3 to only
use these 12 channels, right now we have it at a full T1, but we have to
get this fixed as soon as possible.

2. We have a directory number for each channel, but the hunting does not
work correctly except the main dn for each PRI, is this a function of the
telco or a parameter in the pm3?

3. Before we ordered this, Livingston (Lucent) tech support said we could
log the connect rates in the detail file, it is not logging, how do we get
it to log?

4. Is there a way to see the "Calling-Station-Id" directly from the pm3
while the user is logged on?

5. How can we tell if a user is connected with Kflex or v.90?

6. On our PM2's all detail, ie space in username, user tries to login but
is set to reject in the users files, etc. was logged in our
/usr/adm/messages file on our accounting server (Solaris 2.5). It does not
do this with these PM3's, how do we get this setup for the PM3, we want to
log everything.

7. When we do a show modems, we get a lot of "LAPM DISCONNECT" and
"CIRCUIT DISCONNECT"'s, what do these "disconnect" reasons mean?

8. I found that if we reboot PM3 #1, then all of our PRI's busy out until
it comes back up, this doesn't seem right. Is there something I can tell
our un-cooperative telco to fix this?

9. We have a LOT of users, included myself, complaining of dropped
connections when connected to these pm3's. I am personally using an
External Zoom that Livingston sent me, I hardly ever got dropped when
connected to our old analog pool and hardly ever got dropped when
connected to a local Cisco box at 56K. Is there some settings I can check
to help with this?

Any help you can give us would be GREATLY appreciated.
