(Just lotr mod and some common client-side mods)so then if anyone has a mod outside those they wouldn't be able to join? Yes, you could use a whitelist, but there would be nothing to prevent the Mod Id being changed to one of the whitelisted mods.

I opened the cheating essentials mod with 7-zip and found that it does not contain a mcmod.info file (unlike lotr). I think that information is in one of the class files, making it nearly impossible for the average user to edit.

Wouldn't that crash your game though? Even if the server let you in, surely something would go wrong when you encounter a block/entity from a mod you don't have installed because you're so sad you need to hack minecraft?
