I set up a Tekkit server. Whenever anyone goes into the nether if they die when they respawn it's in some completely random area of the nether, kilometers away from the entrance. I checked it out in admin mode and when this happens everything goes screwy. Portals *IN* the nether lead *TO* the nether at that same spawn point from above so there is no way to get out, portals in the overworld lead to a completely empty world with just a portal and a small obsidian platform. It basically breaks the nether. Now I can fix this with a server restart which makes everything work all the way up until someone dies in the nether, then it's all broken again in the exact same way. Help?

Well making a new world partly worked, now I can start the server up but joining gives my client item ID mismatched errors.

I'm setting up a Tekkit server for some friends and myself to mess around on. I like a lot of the mods in the game but some are just not fun and I want to remove just those specific ones while leaving the rest intact. The problem I'm running into is that simply removing the .jar or .zip files from the server seems to inevitably break something and the server can't even start without exploding with errors and crashing out. Is there a better way?
