WiFi CC3000 as Server?

I have a SparkFun CC3000 WiFi shield on an Arduino Redboard (Uno class) and the examples in the SFE CC3000 example Library all work. But I need to use it as a Server, something like WiFi example WiFiWebServer. I don’t see server functions in the SFE_CC3000 Library.

It can’t be that hard, but I don’t know where to start. Can someone point me to a library or tutorial?

What I really need is to have the Arduino connected to a remote WiFi connection and be able to send it a few bytes of control information and get back a few bytes of status. I chose the SF C3000 shield because I need to use an external antenna which the Arduino WiFi board does not have.

Thanks,
