Mongrel users - Nov 2007 - Digest Auth and Mongrel

If I have a low volume application and I want to use DigestAuth to 
limit access to the site, is it possible to do this with just 
mongrel/mongrel_cluster?

I''m thinking I''m going to have to include Apache to make this
work, and
I heard that Rails 2 has methods to do this, but thought I''d ask.

It shouldn''t be an issue. Simply add a mongrel handler in front of all
requests to do so.

Thanks!  I had to chuckle at the ''simply'' part.  For you, that
would
most likely take about 15 minutes to put together.  For me, that''s a 
completely different issue.  :)

I''ve solved it with Apache for now...I was just wondering how
it''s done
in the Mongrel world.
