During the 1980s and 1990s Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) were widely used on all kinds of computers. The BBS Documentary documents the rise and fall of the BBS subculture.
Watching this documentary left me wondering about Unix systems. They are - similar to BBS - designed to support remote TTYs over a modem, using
getty and login to provide access to the system.
Does there exist any record of a *publicly accessible* Unix system during the 1980s and 1990s that people could call into using a modem?
