Hi guys

Batchserve is no longer a supported product. There won't be any new
versions.

But you can download the last released version from the XSI wiki:
http://softimage.wiki.avid.com/index.php/Category:BatchServe
 
The download includes the source code.

Second that and Joes comments too. Satellite rendering is painful at
times and I don't see why setting up a rendermanager like Batchserve
should be so difficult. Being a one man operation I have no network guy
to fix things for me. I need something that is easy to set up and
maintain - like Backburner.
