OS X Server & Ruby on Rails

Not really a question so much as just wondering...

Does anyone have any good links to setting up Ruby on Rails on OS X Server to act as a private testing server? I have an old PowerBook lying around and with 10.5 coming soon I'd like to migrate the machine to have 10.4 and host some Rails apps.

For now I assume I can follow regular RoR install steps and continue, but just wondering if someone new of an app or special steps for 10.4 server.

Thanks

I don't think you need to do anything special for Mac OS X Server. I use the excellent instructions over on HiveLogic. Now when 10.5 is released in October there will be no need to install a Rails. It will include a ready to go Ruby on Rails install. This is for both development and deployment with Apache and Mongrel.
