    This is a great resource. The set up and install was relatively easy

    Yeah - that "Hivelogic":http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger tutorial is by far the best I've seen to help you get up and running fast with Rails on OS X.

    Yep, Apple's on top of it. No surprise though, yeah? :) I went through this tutorial a few weeks ago and really appreciated it. And what a testimonial for Hivelogic that Apple would link to it! Now I'm looking for a more intensive tutorial that incorporates user authentication. Any tips?

    Hi Dave - yes, there are some great tutorials out there. Take a look a the "Typo source code":http://www.typosphere.org/trac/browser/trunk, specifically the "User model":http://www.typosphere.org/trac/browser/trunk/app/models/user.rb, the "AccountController":http://www.typosphere.org/trac/browser/trunk/app/controllers/accounts_controller.rb, and the "LoginSystem module":http://www.typosphere.org/trac/browser/trunk/lib/login_system.rb. "Authentication":http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/Authentication on the Rails wiki. "Agile Web Development with Rails":http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/title/rails/ has some good starting places. "Rails Recipes":http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/fr_rr/ has a recipe for baking delicious authentication.
