MS-DOS terminal programs for the Rainbow can be obtained by Anonymous
FTP from Drycas.Club.CC.CMU.EDU, directory [ANONYMOUS.INFO-DEC-MICRO.COMM].

Don't try getting them by Email; it doesn't work.

CP/M Kermit is also available for the Rainbow; other CP/M terminal
programs held on Simtel20 should also be configurable for it.
The CPM Users' Group years ago had a whole disk of Rainbow
communications software which might be somewhere in PD2:<CPM.CUG> on
Simtel20.
