I had the _exact_ same feeling; when I read your comment I started googling a bit but I came up short. In my case it should probably have been one or some of: MUDs, Linux, Debian, Amiga, shareware, usenet, IRC.

Yeah, same. Likely UNIX utilities, Linux software or howtos (Red Hat, Debian), maybe usenet. Maybe an FTP repository?

Maybe a combination of these — I found this:

Debian 1.x/2.x days, likely a prominent mirror?

It's the Vienna University of Technology, and places like that often run mirrors.
