[Ruby] Multiple Domains with Mongrel + Apache

[Jordan Isip]

Hi Zed,

Great recommendations!  I decided to go with NGINX and set up the "virtual hosts" for multiple domains and mongrel_clusters without much hassle!  

FYI, I used these links for guidance:

Thanks again for your suggestions!

I'm not much of an apache guy.  I've always hated the configuration
file, so these days I use nginx.  Nginx is very nice and very stable.
You should give that a whirl.

Otherwise, your config looks good, minus the static page caching
features you might want.

For the mongrel clusters, you'll want to make sure that
any /etc/init.d/ (or /etc/rc.d/) script you make clears out the
log/*.pid files if you reboot.

I'd also recommend that you go buy:

For a good manual on generic Linux administration.
