Now you're root. 3. cd to /root directory. cd /root <enter> 4. Issue the following command: nano .orbitrc <enter> 5. Enter the following two lines: ORBIIOPIPv4=1 ORBIIOPUNIX=0 6. Press ctrl+o and return to save the file. 7. Press ctrl+x to exit nano. Now your administrative applications should work.
