I have a server running the standard, unmodified Vanilla server on a Linux box. After talking to the people on the server we have decided that moving to a Bukkit Server would be better because of the awesome plugins.
However, it seems that Minecraft generates "nether" and "overworld" files differently than Bukkit. Bukkit generates a world
and a world_nether
folders. I have read the forum post that copying the Vanilla's world folder to world
and world_nether
seems to work but I feel like this a a bit hackish and might cause problems in the future.
Has anyone successively done this?

Here is what I did. Bukkit generates a
world
and aworld_nether
folder.I moved the
vanilla/world/regions
tobukkit/world/regions
and then movedvanilla/world/DIM-1
tobukkit/world_nether/DIM-1
