So currently my linode (ubuntu 11.10) serves up three node.js apps for me using connect's vhost middleware listening on port 80. Here is an example of how vhost sets up a domain:
var portfolio = require('./bootstrap-portfolio/lib/app.js');
var server = express();
server.use(express.vhost('sencedev.com',portfolio));
server.use(express.vhost('www.sencedev.com',portfolio));
server.listen(80);
However I would now like to add a wordpress installation to my vps as well. In the past for me this has meant a traditional apache installation; however I'm a bit unsure of how node.js + a different webserver (apache or nginx) should interact.
Any thoughts on how I should approach hosting wordpress + node.js on the same box?
