[Rails] [somewhat OT] Apache config for Rails + ColdFusion + PHP

[Elliott Clark]

Here is what I am working on right now:
<Proxy balancer://mycluster>
  BalancerMember http://192.168.0.1:3000
  BalancerMember http://192.168.0.1:3001
  BalancerMember http://192.168.0.11:3000 loadfactor=2
  BalancerMember http://192.168.0.11:3001 loadfactor=2
</Proxy>

<Location /balancer-manager>
  SetHandler balancer-manager
</Location>

<Directory "/var/www/someplace>
 Options Indexes MultiViews
 AllowOverride None
 Order allow,deny
 Allow from all
</directory>

Alias /someplace /var/www/someplace

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerAdmin admin at localhost
  ServerName www.site.com
  ServerAlias site.com
  ProxyPass / balancer://mycluster/
  ProxyPassReverse / balancer://mycluster/
</VirtualHost>

 Most of my config came from
http://blog.innerewut.de/articles/2006/04/21/scaling-rails-with-apache-2-2-mod_proxy_balancer-and-mongrel
I haven't tested it yet, but it should be close.
