Thank you Lee, your information helped me get past that usermod not found problem. Another quick question though...hope you don't mind :)
It seems that cap deploy:setup is trying to run nginx stuff, however this server is apache and nginx isn't installed. Is the apache vs nginx vs both set by default or manageable? This is probably an easy fix but I can't seem to find any info.
