VM/SP

This started as a joke, but turned into something interesting.
Someone posted on alt.os.multics about setting a UNIX to pop up the VM/SP
logo from /etc/issue. I did one better and crocked up a way to make UNIX
actually act like VM/SP at the logon (Mutilated copy of telnetd and a new login program).

The question is, what was VM/SP? I know it was IBMs, and it ran on large
mainframes. Where can I find information about it?

Oh, if you want to see the results of my screwing around (And my first
hackery in C that ever worked!) telnet at ubani.umtec.com.
