hi,
i'm planning to deploy with a cluster of mongrels behind apache and i have everything working ok but i'm wondering how to redirect users from the root path (i.e. mydomain.com/ ) to what i want to be my default controller/action?
should i have a routes.rb entry that handles this or should apache rewrite the url?
thanks, mike

Myself, I'd prefer to have this controlled by rails as I like to have as much app logic residing there.
to use rails you'd add a route such as,
map.connect '', :controller => "some_controller", :action => "some_action"
There's a commented out route like that in your default routes config.
