Thanks Matt. That clears some things up for me. I didn't realize Mongrel could stand alone. I am actually trying to switch over to Passenger as that will be my new Production env. and I want to develop in a similar env.. I am having some issues getting Passenger running though cause of some system issues on my machine.
What's your thoughts on running Mongrel on my dev box and Passenger in production? Thanks man.
