I have a clients site hosted by Yahoo Small Business and wondering if  
there’s some way to get my local Rails app working there.

Yahoo doesn’t explicitly say they have RoR capability.

I think I remember there’s a way to create a selfe contained Rails app.  
Something about installed Rails as a plugin within the vendor directory  
perhaps?

Anyone have experience using Rails on a Yahoo hosted domain?

Thanks,  
DAN

Good luck,
