You'll need a dedicated server for your lan, but I did find the server
version of the grapple here:

version of the 1.11:  http://www.bit-net.com/~omegaone/archive.htm

	Thank you very much!   I haven't had any luck getting it to run 
with Fuh-Quake so far, but I've got the time to fiddle with it and see 
what I can do.  Thanks again for helping the clue impaired get a clue. 
:)  It never occured to me to search for a modified version of the hook.

	Later,

As I remember, a lot of players didn't care for the paralysis part.  Made it
too much of a weapon and less a grappling hook.
