Install NS2 on Ubuntu 11 "OFFLINE"
 

I am trying to install Ns2.35 on UBUNTU, but that machine is not connected to internet. I am new to Ubuntu also. Can someone help me with giving the steps to be followed to install UBUNTU

Thanks and Regards

Well, somehow you will have to install the ns2 prerequisites.
Else no build of ns-allinone-2.35.

$ sudo apt-get install \
g++ g++-4.4 autoconf automake make patch libtool libxmu-dev xgraph

Suggest :
Use the 32bits (i386/i686) version of either 12.04.4 or 14.04.1,
both "LTS", and usually available on DVD sets.
I.e. g++* and libxmu-dev have lots of dependencies.
And those dependencies depends on more "dependencies".
So it's quite a job to find and download all those packages.
g++ http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/g++
libxmu-dev http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libxmu-dev

* ns-allinone-2.35 for gcc 4.8.2 .. 4.9.1 : ns-allinone-2.35_gcc482.tar.gz

Thanks for the reply knudfl.

When I was trying to install ns2 on windows, I have installed cygwin's updates which has downloaded some essential files for ns2. Can I use those now to install? If no, can you please let me know what all dependencies are to be addressed?

Thanks in advance

Which Ubuntu ? ?
http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/...Ask_a_Question

Please show the outputs from these two commands :
a) $ uname -m
b) $ cat /etc/issue

uname -m :"i686"

cat /etc/issue : "ubuntu 11.10 \n \l"

Ubuntu 11.10 : Sorry, not usable.
I.e. it's more than difficult to identify "11.10 packages"
in `the old archive´ http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/

Please use a supported version.
