aroo? the *only* thing that should go into a bukkit .jar is ModloaderMP and the forge. everything else goes in the mods folder.
only vanilla needs to stuff IC2 and BC into the jar and even then only on Linux due to the lack of sorting by mr. lazy author of ModloaderMP.
Okay, I will try it that way. I thought that regardless of Vanilla or Bukkit, you needed to mod the main server jar with IC+BC+everything else you wanted to actually mod, and the add-ons for certain mods went in the mods/ folder.
Perhaps I misread the instructions. <.>
EDIT:
That seems to have been my problem. <.>
Thank you for pointing that out! You saved me from another evening of despair; otherwise, I'd have spent most of tonight bashing my head on my keyboard trying to figure out what the blazes I was doing wrong.
