There were 2 Unix BBS programs that I played with back in the 80s. One of them I think was
called XBBS. The other one which was a lot better was called Waffle (89 timeframe). Waffle
was a lot more configurable and snazzier and ran well on SysV (and others). XBBS was
targeted for Xenix, was older & may run better on older hardware but would require
some porting.

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.
