Ruby on Rails

Hi Peter, thank you for the reply

mmm..ok, i'll try it out, considering that i'll have to manage both
domains and external domains

could you please explain better this part? or if you have some
docs/posts i can read about

what about an approach like set a dedicated ip for the app, and in the
apache config accept all the requests to that ip and be managed by the
rails app. In that way the user could simply change the A record of his
domain and it should kinda work (i've not tried it yet, but iirc in the
apache config is possible to do something like this... i don't know with
nginx though)

Thanks
