Another Webhost that I have several accounts with prior to
discovering rails is working with me to have rails supported on their
server as well.  They cannot run FCGI on their server becuase of the
following reason:
------------------------------------------
Our system administrators performed the following upgrades:

gems 0.8.11
rails 0.13.1
ruby 1.8.2

However, it is not possible to run FastCGI on our servers. We are
using the Suexec mechanism, and our system administrators performed
multiple tests. The results showed that FastCGI does not work well
with Suexec and the FrontPage server extensions. That is why we do
not support FastCGI on our servers.

Thank you!

Best Regards,
Support

Do you know if SCGI could work around this issue?
