"Oldscool" BBS system?

Somewhere in february i will have an unused phone line at my hands (i open a secondhand hardware shop in Essen and only need the first ISDN and the DSL-line ;) ) and would like to use it for setting up an oldscool BBS system.
I would like to use some PC system with a board software that can talk to a breadbin, so, what painfree (open-/free-)software should i use for this?
Preferable something that can be called over the net trough telnet too.

If someone else want to set such a thing up, i organize the hardware and pay the phone line and the energy bill ;)

Yeah, the Internet...
But, do you know about some telnet for the breadbin that does not need a PC as a backend?
I mean, using the C64 plus the RRNet and some standalone router?
Or, better, forget the router, direct DSL connection with the breadbin?
Unless that is given, the only true solution for a real c64 freak is grabing his old modem and use dialup.

But if you use the pc as telnet converter to a C64. And use http://sourceforge.net/projects/c64ne, so you can use the pc harddisk as a storage device. That would give you plenty more harddisk space then a 1581 disk.

No idea how your pc/c64 coding skills are, but i do think it is possible to make some virtual devices/drivers to use winvice for example to host the breadbox code and run the actual BBS from a emu on a laptop using C64 and the telnet converter on the same machine.

Using a classic phoneline to run a BBS is only helping global warming i guess, i don't believe that people are using BBS systems anymore due to the massive availablity of broadband internet these days.

Long distant calls are far too expensive, even with Versatel -.-
