Try a look at sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/BBs/bbs, there are some
bbs systems for Linux.
If exchanging messages isn't important, you may try ft_bbs-0.4, available
on freebsd.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming. It has a similar functionallity
as ftp but for modems with easy usage and maximum security.
