Sorry, ignore me. I got this figured out. I was being really dumb and had the wrong config.json file open and didn't know what I was looking at. Just ignore. Yes, the socket.io settings were missing, but were on my screen so I was sure that they were there.

Oops, we didn't not resolve this and moved to CentOS and there was no further issue.

Amazon is all root by default. yeah, the default user for centos is centos with your KMS or privatekey they create. For Ubuntu is Ubuntu.

Command was... nvm use 0.10.8, as it was already installed here, just not in use.
