Playing custom maps online

Hi there, I apologize if this is something asked a million times before hand, but me and some friends wanted to play some custom maps online. Maps found in the 2.0 conversion pack such as rhen var and bespin. What would I need to do to be able to add and play them? I have the v1.08 server manager and a copy pasted folders from the game's folders to the server's. It lets me play the original maps with the KotOR factions but I can't get any of the custom maps to show up in the list to run on the server.

It can be done, but everyone on the server must have the mod installed.

Yea, it's mainly for myself and a few friends. We have the mods, just looking for a way to be able to play them online together using the server manager.

You need to add the mod maps to the server manager map list, I think

Well, I have serveral servers with modmaps so that my team was able to play them for fun, however some people seem to be unable to do it (i guess they're not placing the maps appropriately)...

This is how it would look like in the SWBF2SM/RM after getting the maps installed:

And this is how the maps are in the addon folder...

If u cant get it working, I'll upload the entire server software here, in case someone else has trouble.

I tried creating a Modmaps folder and place the addon folder inside but still didn't get the maps to show up. I only have the original maps with the custom faction in the list as shown in the attachments

Here's what the addon folder looks like right now. Yea I wasn't sure how many maps you could add. If I can't add anymore I guess I would take out the KotOR faction maps but I'm not sure atm how I would do that.


Edit: I looked at the log files and this what I saw when I tried to run it recently:
