EDIT: I made a video for the visual learners out there (I know you exist ¬¬)

Download this file

http://www.mediafire.com/?albs73xkarrop71

Then, open terminal (search for it in spotlight if you don't already know how to open it) and type "chmod a+x " (don't type the quotes) and drag your LaunchServer.command file that you downloaded into the open terminal window and press return.

Next, you need to place your Tekkit_Server_2 folder onto your desktop.

Now you need to config your server.properties file (inside your Tekkit_Server_2 folder) .

Right click server.proberties and then go to open with > other...

Find text edit in the list of apps and open server.properties with text edit.

Make sure you change the server ip field to point to your computers ip (you can find it in System Preferences > Network >Advanced >TCP/IP).

Port forward your router if you need too (Im so not writing a tut on this because there are already millions).

Now you can mess with any other settings in the server.properties file, and when your done save and exit.

If you feel so inclined you can also edit other mod cfg files (also not going into detail on this) just right click and open with text edit like you did before.

And for the finale, double click the LaunchServer.command file and if all went as planned your server should start.

If there are any errors with this someone please let me know because i typed this from memory...

Good Luck!

There's a link to a guide in here. I locked the guide thread because people were posting a bunch of crap help requests in it and it was up to 18 pages, but it's still maintained and you can still learn a lot from it.
