I have a new vm, and I am starting to deploy a new rails application.
Before getting too deep into my application deployment, I wanted to take a moment and understand how my VM has been deployed at hostingrails.com.
I have done a nmap scan of my ip address, and it appears ports are being blocked somewhere, but I do not see iptables running on my vm.
Can someone from hostingrails.com give me an overview of the network architecture for virtual servers? Specifically, is there a firewall in front of my vm? If so, how can I control it if need be.
