$ ls vendor/rails
actionmailer  actionwebservice  activesupport
actionpack    activerecord      railties

Any other result means that you will suffer every time DreamHost
upgrades its version of rails.

Looks like you are frozen.  Good.  I don't know how to verify that those
are indeed the versions being used but I wouldn't worry about it much.

Actually, my blog is down too.  I'm getting errors about missing
standard Ruby modules in my logs and, as you noticed, the rails command
is MIA.  Looks like DreamHost has broken Rails worldwide.

[holt]$ /usr/lib/ruby/ruby/gems/1.8/bin/rails --version
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:1:in `require': no such file to
load -- rbconfig (LoadError)
        from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:1
        from /usr/lib/ruby/ruby/gems/1.8/bin/rails:9:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/ruby/gems/1.8/bin/rails:9

Not much you or I can do except investigate alternative hosting.  Bogus.
