Rails Hosting Question

All,
I’m a system administrator who has been tasked with learning to
develop in Ruby and also deploying a development->production Ruby on
Rails service for some internal applications.

Currenty, I’m using Redhat Enterprise, Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 3.0 Beta 4
on Phusion Passenger. I’ve followed the tutorials and have everything
working. I’m able to go to http://hostname.com:3000 and all that jazz.

Here’s my question: In the LAMP stack, you can have your
http://hostname.com/app1
and http://hostname.com/app2 and so on and they are obviously separate
applications. This doesn’t appear to be the default in Rails. Can
anyone give me some guidance or point me at some documentation which
will allow me to configure my Rails instance to do something along
these lines? If not that, then perhaps advise me on the best practices
when dealing with this framework.

Many thanks.

Regards,

Jason Manous
