I've recently switched from using Mongrel in dev mode to using Passenger in order to more closely mirror my production environment.
The problem I'm having now is that I need to be able to simulate network failures between my service and its clients (which are web services and also my product). To do this in the past I'd just shut down Mongrel. I'm not sure how to do this with Passenger. There doesn't seem to be a start / stop capability with it. Any ideas / experience ?
TIA, Bill
