I ran Fido on a DEC Rainbow in the early 80's.
Almost all of the BBS's were on PC's and accessed by telephone dial up.
Mail was sent by toll free zone hopping.
It was purely an amateur hobby thing.
The mini and mainframe world was too much of an expensive place for the
happy hobby hacker!!
Hence little or nothing by way of BBS's on PDP-11 and above.

I have both a pdp 11/34 and 11/23 and am trying to find some bbs software

Any suggestions? i have not had much luck finding anything.

There may be something for RSTS/E. That seems like the OS most likely to
have such software. You might also find some old UNIX source code that might compile on
BSD2.11.
