It depends. For development if you use the built in web server you
need to start it twice for http and https. This is in general a
security measure. You do not want the same process to listen to two
sockets else if something happens (like a memory leak) you may get
locked out.

In deployment you should be using apache+mod_wsgi

just download and run this:
http://web2py.googlecode.com/hg/scripts/setup-web2py-ubuntu.sh

It will setup everything for you behind a single apache server.
I think this easier than rails actually.
