Yes, I am running it as /usr/sbin/usermod. I can run my wrapper with a simple perl script written on linux. The problem appears when I try to run it through the apache mod_perl.

What am I doing wrong ? Try '/usr/sbin/usermod' instead of 'usermod'. It may be a path issue. Also, 'usermod' might have to be run interactively (rather than reading from standard input), so you may have to create a virtual terminal in order to interface with usermod. (I might be wrong on this, and I can't elaborate further.)
