Rails deployment checklist

At Good Dog Design, we manage a number of servers for our clients, and are frequently adding new ones. Whilst this process should really be scripted, until we do, this checklist should help cut a lot of the time that goes into setting up a new server.

These checklists are somewhat debian specific as we mainly run debian and ubuntu servers (on Slicehost if you’re curious), but many of the points can easily be adapted for your distro of choice.
