https and ssl

Is there a decent guide/tutorial on how to properly use https and ssl in a Rails app?

Say I want people to do all the account stuff via https://secure.domain/account So, all the stuff in the Account controller is protected

And a couple actions in the Store controller is also done via https: https://secure.domain/store/purchase

How could I set that up?

Thanks, Joe

A quick google on 'rails ssl tutorial' turned up http://www.styledbits.com/articles/2006/06/04/adding-ssl-to-your-rails-app-in-5-minutes

There's also an ssl_requirement plugin on:
