I'm using the painterly pack for textures. For server, I'm using Susan's old laptop loaded with MineOS, and the Bukkit version of the Minecraft server. Plus a bunch of plugins, but this is already probably more than you wanted to know ;-)
Hardly even close! I run a server off of my own computer for friends at work. I currently run simpleserver and I'm looking for a few good addons, though I haven't skinned anything yet.
I've been looking for a good portal mod, since portals currently don't work in SMP, and I'd like point to point portals. Sadly I think I'm going to need to learn how to edit java to implement them.
I tried bukkit for a bit, but it didn't want to run well with my AMD/win 64 machine, and I like simpleserver's wrap as opposed to a full .jar replacement for moderation tools.
I may have to convert my older machine to linux and give MineOS a shot >.>
Haha, awesome! I've been wanting to babble to someone about this stuff. :) I was using the Hey0 mod before, but it was KO'ed by the recent update and Hey0 doesn't want to work on it anymore. Most of the Hey0 modders are converting to Bukkit, so having that makes a lot of plugins available. I'm not sure that any of these mods have versions for a vanilla server or simpleserver. Do I understand right, simpleserver is a wrapper around a server, and that server could be vanilla minecraft or bukkit or something else? What bukkit is doing is definitely iffy, I hope Notch/Mojang don't slap them down. It sounds like they (Mojang) are having meetings this week to discuss it.
mods I'm using: General - I use give, time, spawn, setspawn and teleport. WarpGate - I use the named portals to bookmark import locations. MyHome - just another way to bookmark a location fill - super simple for building things, I use this a lot

Bukkit's issue is that it distributes the code from minecraft_server.jar, which the Minecraft site says pretty clearly you're not allowed to do. Also, they did their first distribution under GPL, which is impossible because they don't own or even have the code to minecraft_server.jar, so they can't open-source it.
I wonder if your problem with hmod/hey0 was the the client update that killed it for everyone. ( academic now I suppose ...)
You're welcome! There was one called Stargate for hMod, and there may be more around as well.
Repair sounds interesting, what does that do?
It was using http to allow you to start and stop the server, and ftp to upload plugins. It also had a think that gave you a terminal inside a webpage, implemented in javascript. That at least encrypted the password so, ok, but I'd still rather use ssh.
What kinds of things are you guys doing in SMP? Or, I guess, wanting to do.
Wow! I thought I had sent a reply days ago, apparently the internet ate it.
Mostly SMP is more or less a "build neat things under the threat of monsters, and muck about underground finding stuff".
Repair, which I have located, is a tool repair mod which, unfortunately is only for single player. The idea is to use a piece of main material to repair a tool, as opposed to wearing it out and building an entirely new one. I will be on the lookout for a new one, and in the meantime I'll play with code until something interesting comes out.
Also, I've been moving the constructions on my current server over to a new world, for dyes and whatnot. Yay!
Also, what are you skinning with? And other stuff you use?
