Philip: at this point I want to upload something... anything. I'm following
the example on the mongrel_upload_plugin and though it says finished I don't
see the file anywhere. I Turned on --debug and I can only see that it's at
least getting the headers (content-type, etc) on the uploaded file... but
nothing on the whereabouts.

Like I mentioned before, I'm very green when it comes to mongrel... however
I'm decently versed in sysadmin *nix stuff... apache and friends. I'm just
needing a nudge in the right direction. :-)

cheers,

-rjs-

Others have given good advice on how to do it, but wanted to say you don't
need to do anything to get it to accept 100mb files.  We do that quite a
bit and while it takes awhile works just fine.  It does tie up a mongrel
process, but we're okay with that.
