Eric, i agree with Fred it should be standalone if all possible,
however if you change your apache to another port (:81?), and run
NGINX on 80.... it will work, and you can access the apache apps
directly through new port or add a nginx rule like the article below
explains so requests on port 80 with certain /paths get proxied over
to apache.
here is a good article.
http://www.debian-administration.org/article/Speeding_up_dynamic_websites_via_an_nginx_proxy
If used this a couple of times and bbb works just fine with the other
apps.
regards,
Stephen
