I did manage for him to connect to OS9 using TSMON and LOGIN from stock OS9 level 2 Dev disk and also on to OSTERM using its host function. He was pretty impressed that my Coco was doing its own "internet" thing...

Warning !!! If you attempt to run CoBBS, there are errors in Rainbow.
The full version use to be on Compuserve but I'm sure you will be able to find CoBBS on disk somewhere online.
I use to run The Citadel BBS on CoBBS at first then went to RiBBS.
Running a BBS on the Coco was great for me.
