ubuntu npm install failed to fetch - node.js

I'm getting an error when I attempt to npm install a particular package.
These commands worked fine:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo apt-get install npm
At this point, npm is installed, since npm -v works properly.
But when I attempted to use npm to install a package I got an error:
sudo npm install -g grunt-cli

I get this error when I work in a virtual machine: a VMWare Ubuntu 12.04.5. Would you have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Read the error:
Please try running this command again as root/Administrator
Try:
sudo npm install -g npm
And as #mscdex said, you have to upgrade you node version. it is really old.

Does anybody know the issue? I just installed nodejs and npm so I have no idea why this would happen.

I also hit into this error. It might be due to my network.
I work out as:
npm --strict-ssl false install <pkg>
This option sets validation on nodejs's CA as optional. I think it has the same effect as Sandile's answer.
I think an issue just like this one has already been answered to some degree here: NPM installation error.
But, to save you some time, try npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/
I was having the same kind of problem with the same version of node and npm.
npm ERR! node -v v0.6.12
npm ERR! npm -v 1.1.4
These are the versions that you get with ubuntu using apt-get.
To fix the problem, I removed the old versions:
sudo apt-get remove nodejs
This removes node and npm.
Then installed the latest:
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install
sudo chmod -R a+rx /usr/local/lib/node_modules
You can remove the install directory when you're done with it.
I got the script that I based this on from:
https://gist.github.com/isaacs/579814 which is linked to from: http://www.joyent.com/blog/installing-node-and-npm/
The article is a little out of date. For instance, npm comes with node now.
