I've passed all IWD and HoW with Cleric/Ranger. The only problem I had, were traps.
With Str about 18/90 +-, you can bash most of locks. Thus, missing presence of lockpicking is not so problem.
Ranger is a good melee fighter. As cleric, you are restricted only to weapons available by cleric ethos, but it is still enough. With all that cleric protection- and bless-spells, you can boost your character even before battle.
As your ranger part will progress high, you will start to have your druid spells available. Your cleric's spell slots are shared with druid's ones. Thus, when you will reach some level of druid spells, you can cast it as good as cleric spells immediately.

Now, I am playing Figher/Druid, but it seems to me, it isn't as strong class as Cleric/Ranger was.
You can also try Figher/Mage/Cleric. But you will have same problem... absence of thief. So you can try Fighter/Thief/Cleric, if you don't want problems with traps.
