Linux versions are compiled from source (as oposed to distributed as a 
binary) by the end users. Therefore for Linux you need to download the 
archive labeled as 

"Source Code (Version 0.8.6)"
"All Platforms" "Source Code"

and compile it.

And yes, the Linux version does suport networking, though it's very very
involved to setup.
