This BBS had alot of potential but the author is very unreliable.
After paying $50 for the honor of becoming a beta site I found that
the package wasn't even near complete and was very buggy. I got the
author to fix a couple of the problems but it kept taking longer and
longer to get fixes and he kept coming up with excuses for not working
on it. There are fixes that were promised within a couple days that,
more than two months later, still haven't been seen. I've given up on
him and would advise others to stear clear of this one.

BBLinux isn't really a BBS. It is a C program and a few scripts that
allow you to add time limit enforcement to a shell or menu login.
Combined with the BBS-Util package and a menu script, or even Lynx,
you could probably come up with a pretty decent BBS in little time.

Excerpts from the README:

The following collection of files and text will help converting a Linux
system into a BBS in (almost) no time. Most of it a quick hack but should
serve as a good starting point. Any help or improvements are welcome ...
I will try to collect them, incorporate them and make them available in the
same package.

>From a recent email from Adam:
        
        BBS-Util no longer exists (as such).  I have renamed the package to
        'Dial-Up Utils' (because the package is not specifically oriented
        towards BBS administration, but towards the administration of dial-ups
        in general).  Dial-Up Utils 1.1 contains several features not found in
        BBS-Util 1.0 such as "Smart-Boot[tm]" (booting users only when all
        lines are busy, and optionally booting at most *one* user per minute
        in order to maximize line utilization).  You can find the package at:

        sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/BBS/Dial-Up_Utils_1.1.tar.gz

Adam wrote this package to enhance and add to the functions provided by
the BBLinux package. It adds the following functions:

timeleft:       Tells users how much time they have left
daysleft:       Tells users how many days they have left before their account
                expires
user_add:       Creates passwd file entry AND record in the BBS user database.
user_addrec:    Create record in user database.
user_del:       Removes passwd file entry AND record in the BBS user database.
user_delrec:    delete record in user database.
user_data:      Shows BBS user record in a readable format.
user_kick:      Give a user the boot (i.e. kill all of their processes).
user_login:     determine if user is allowed to login now.
user_purge:     Remove accounts which have not been used in a certain # of days
