The way it normally works is your request a port, they give it to you (say 4005). You run rails on that port, and then your proxy apache or another webserver to point to it. Either proxy or use mod_rewrite. Make sure you start the app using mongrel and not webrick. Mongrel is the standard now, so you should be fine.
Search on "deploying rails to joyent" or other to see instructions. They may be similar to your hosting company (who I am assuming doesn't regularly host rails apps). Dreamhost uses a new deployment means called "Passenger" which makes it very easy.
