Let me clarify.  First, GOODS server can be run outside of Squeak.  It is just an executable file.  I'm sure you can download and build GOODS from http://www.garret.ru/~knizhnik/goods.html.  Then just run the goodsrv program outside of Squeak.  GOODS client is still necessary in Squeak to access the server.

The GoodsServer package for Squeak was written because I was tired of doing just what I stated, e.g. starting goodsrv outside of Squeak.  I just wanted to launch it from my program in Squeak.  I wrote it with only Windows in mind, but in the latest edition on SqueakMap, I included a contribution from Marco Paga <marco at marco-paga.de> that provides a Linux compatible version.  I don't have Linux so I cannot tell you if it works or how to troubleshoot errors on that side of the equation.  I should update the SqueakMap documentation to reflect this....
