Try this...
http://www.chatbear.com/personal/justserver.pl

It's just the latest server.pl from the CVS. It includes the fix I made to
get things going in my machine on win2k. It may work for you.

If you don't know CVS, the easiest way to check files out is this...
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/slimp3/slimp3/server/

There's all the files in the server. Click the one you want (server.pl is
what I clicked on). It gives you a version history. If you want to download
a revision, just click the number, like 1.22 (the newest one) and you can
download it.
