Does dreamhost feature Rails support? I couldn’t find that on their website. Ben ---

I also have a linode and find the support excellent. I’m running lighttpd on debian and it’s great. At the same time I also understand the need for a hosted situation. I also have servers hosted with Host Nexus and they are working on getting rails support in place right now. I’ve been extremely pleased with their support, and if they get the rails stuff on there I think it will be a big win. If anyone is interested I’ll keep you posted when that happens. Michael T. ---

There are other $50 off coupons floating around, but these are the best ones if they are enabled. They seem to get turned off/on depending on demand. – Jon S. removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid
