I also run a bbs on a Pi (3B+) as a back up for the main system.
The Pi does a rsync every hour to ensure it is up to date but excludes various
directories such as ~/bin as Pi is ARM and main is X64, there are a few others
for similar reasons.

The Pi runs mbse which is a total Linux system so there is nothing else needed
other than crontab running.

Needless to say the main system also runs mbse.

Mbse is available as source from sourceforge
(www.sourceforge.net/projects/mbsebbs)

There are a few packages that also need to be installed before compiling it
(using gcc) and on the Pi does take 10 minutes or so but I run it using a
hard drive via a x830 plus case and a Laptop power source adapter (all via
eBay) which is an easy process and the SD card is removed as not needed for 
the
3B+.
