Example server-side plug-in for FM Server 8 Adv

I'd like to write a plug-in to run only on the host using FM Server 8 Advanced. Tech support at FM just told me WinExample.fmx (sample on their CDs) is written only to be run on the client side, and they don't yet have an example to run on the host side.

I presume they haven't yet done much with this new feature of FM Server 8 Adv.

Can anyone point me to a sample plug-in that runs only on the server side?

Are there plugholes on serverside? That's new to me!

Plugis that use only the calc engine and have no UIinteraction at all (no nag screen, no config screen,...) can run server side for both FMP clients and through IWP and CWP.

For FMP, the plugin also needs to be installed on the client because server may refuse to execute the plugin call if it's too busy and will had the request back of to the client.

I've used a couple of plugins so far in IWP and one for CWP. No free samples that I know off though. Contact the guys at 24U though.
