First of all, just to make sure we are on the same page, the name of the 
file you need to create is .orbitrc (Note the "rc" that follows .orbit).

On the web page, the following instructions are given:

Enable CORBA over IP
Run the following command to enable CORBA traffic over IP from the ORBit2 
ORB.

cat > ~/.orbitrc << "EOF"
ORBIIOPIPv4=1
EOF

Start by making sure that you are in your home directory (Type "cd" and 
press the enter key--no quotation marks in the command ;-)

At the prompt, you type the first line listed above:

deprice plymouth ~/> cat > ~/.orbitrc << "EOF"

This line tells the computer to redirect what you type into a file called 
.orbitrc.  The last bit of the line ( << "EOF" ) tells the computer to stop 
redirecting the typing when it sees the string EOF typed. So, when you type 
the line above, you will get a secondary prompt--mine is a `>' symbol).Type 
the second line listed above at the prompt, and be careful about 
capitalization.  Then press the enter key.  You should see this:

> ORBIIOPIPv4=1

The prompt will return.  Then, type EOF at the prompt and hit enter. The 
file will be created and you will be returned to your normal prompt, like 
this:

> EOF
deprice plymouth ~/>

Hope this helps,
