I have a Mac computer and I'm new to the whole Feed The Beast thing. My problem is that I have no clue on how to run a MindCrack Feed The Beast Multiplayer server. I have ran servers before on Vanilla Minecraft and Bukkit, but I don't have a clue on the Feed The Beast servers. What I was told was to make a new folder on my desktop titled "FTB Server". Then I downloaded the MindCrack_Server.zip. I upzipped onto the desktop and I dragged the contents from the "MindCrack_Server" folder to my "FTB Server" folder. When I go to open "Server Start.bat" with Terminal, it says "Unable to access jarfile mindcrack.jar" This is where I get stuck because I don't know how to get the "Server Start.bat" to get access to the mindcrack.jar file.

If someone could offer some assistance and/or step-by-step guide on how to run a MINDCRACK Feed The Beast (regular) SMP server, I would be greatly appreciative.

EDIT: SOLVED!
To get your MindCrack multiplayer server to work on a Mac, you'll need to open Server Start.sh with TextEdit and replace everything on the file with
#!/bin/bash
cd "$(dirname "$0")"
exec java -Xmx2G -Xms2G -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui
(you can change the 2G to either 1G or 1024M but 2G or higher is recommended)
save it and then rename your mindcrack.jar to minecraft_server.jar. From there, you'll want to right click Server Start.sh and open with "Other" and you'll go through your Applications to the folder called "Utilities" then you'll select "Enable All Applications" and click Terminal. This should open up the Console for your MindCrack FTB SMP server. You can then close it when it's all finished creating files and alter the server properties to your liking.

Feel free to respond to this if you have any questions regarding your MindCrack FTB SMP server (MACINTOSH) not working or people not being able to connect to multiplayer.

I do not understand what you mean by renaming your mindcrack.jar to minecraft_server.jar, is it in the server folder
