I've been using version 2.0 with a //c for a while now.

My current setup is a Mac iBook running 10.4.11 with Java 1.5, the
latest for this OS.
Connects to the //c's modem port with a USB-to-Serial adapter and a
null cable.
Works best for me with:

IN#2
<CTRL-A> 15B
<CTRL-A> I (not really necessary)

Then  on the mac:

cd /$HOME/a2gameserver
java -Djava.library.path=lib -cp lib:lib/RXTXcomm.jar:dist/ags.jar
ags.Main /dev/tty.usbserial apple2e

which is the //e startup.

I toyed with version 3, but could never get it to work on my laptop
(kept getting path errors no matter
what I tried), although it does work well on one of my XP boxes.
