Gustavo:

	The '3' version of drivewire server is on sourceforge. The
entire project give you all 3 versions of the '3' server (Max,
Winder$, and Linux) and the Java '4' version. The linux code is at:
http://drivewireserver.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/drivewireserver/drivewireserver/linux/

	You can simply download the source (source/drivewire.c) and
makefile (build/makefile) and compile it (they can be in the same
directory). The Linux version is terminal based and pretty self
explanatory (and simple).

The only way to find out is to post to every single newsgroup; that
way, you're assured an accurate answer.
