Cool thanks for the direction. I wasn't sure if this still fell under ROR or not. I figured since I was usiing the Bitnami Rubystack that isntalls everything at once I was maybe hoping someone else who uses that deployment package might have a hint.
But I will look into the PHP, SQLite forums and see what I come up with. But... as far as my first question which would save me from trying the previous method above would be to see if there is a way to reference a sqlite db file via http or ip address in the database.yml file within the Ruby Rails app folder.
