Using Mongrel but not Rails?

Hi,

This is not really rails related... but a question about Mongrel. I can't seem to find this information anywhere. We've got an application here running Apache Solr/Lucene and am interested in having a cluster of Mogrel's + Apache w/load balancer run it. Anyone have any idea how this can be done? Any of the most tiniest of hints would be greatly cherished!

I don't know offhand, but there is a mongrel user's list: http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/mongrel-users

Matt,

I recently had to write a service that ran on "raw Mongrel". An online copy of the docs are available here: <http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/rdoc/&gt;

Most of my heavy lifting was done inside a Mongrel::HttpHandler registered with the server. I'd start with the Mongrel::HttpServer documentation, and there are examples scattered throughout.
