Thx all for the responses. Yes, it does sound like an .ear/.war, but I don't have a web.xml file and it is not a web based app destined for a container. Actually, I am trying to deploy an app to an Apache JAMES server. I need a bunch of my own classes as well as many dependent jars put into a couple of different directories under JAMES. I am ok with having to manually put the files in place, but I need to get M2 to package them all up into a single "tarball" so I can 1) move it to the server, 2) get everything I need in one file for later extraction. Someone mentioned using the assembly plugin, which I tried, but couldn't get to work. I will try again and post the error I am getting. Great suggestions, thx for the help everyone!
