Well, an absolutely minimal web application would just involve putting 
a Ruby script in your cgi-bin directory. No httpd.conf changes
required.

Ruby comes with a CGI library that makes doing this easier--it handles 
parsing the request, formatting the reply, forms, cookies, sessions
and the like.

You can take this a step further by incorporating Ruby as a module in
Apache. Have a look at mod_ruby in the Ruby Application Archive for
installation instructions.


Ruby also has a PHP (or ASP) like facility called eRuby, which lets
you embed Ruby within a web page:

  <body>
    It is now <%= Time.now %>
  </body>


Hope this helps.


Dave
