I have a Typo blog, everything works great locally as always. When I  
push it up to my shared host, which supports typo and has all  
requirements, I am getting the 500 error from my htaccess file. I  
believe that the issue is from redirects, but I am new to RoR and not  
too familiar with the htaccess file. Can anyone tell me how I would  
need to have it set up if my blog is using the symlink I set up as  
follows, ln -sf ~/blog/public ~/public\_html/blog. I am trying to make  
the blog itself use my subdomain [blog.coreyonrails.com](http://blog.coreyonrails.com) as opposed to  
[coreyonrails.com/blog](http://coreyonrails.com/blog) if at all possible. Thanks to anyone who takes a  
stab at this
