What is it, you don't understand ? ?
Open a terminal window and type su ( And enter the root password.)
Next command :
yum install gcc-c++ compat-gcc-34-c++ automake autoconf libtool libX11-devel libXext-devel libXau-devel libXmu-devel xorg-x11-proto-devel
When all the build prerequisites have been installed : exit
And next :
cd ns-allinone-2.34/ && export CC=gcc34 CXX=g++34 && ./install
after type that command i got the following error
cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora.
please verify its path and try again
Hi There, I was having similar problems. I ran the commands posted here and was able to overcome the problem I was having and the installation moves beyond that point. However, now there is another problem . Following are the last few messages I get:
trace/cmu-trace.cc:1157: error: no matching function for call to `std::bitset<16ul>::to_string()'
make: *** [trace/cmu-trace.o] Error 1
Ns make failed!
Would be extremely grateful for any help. I am also using Fedora14 and am trying to install ns2.35 on it.

Post #10, @LordThakur : Welcome to LQ.
'ns-allinone-2.35' is a little tricky, as all files must be compiled
with gcc / g++ version 4.4.4 .
None of the default Fedora 14 gcc's (versions 3.4.6, 4.5.1) will do.
Thank you so much for such a prompt and detailed response. I did figure out that the problem was because of the version of the gcc. I managed to install ns2.34. However, I may have to install ns2.35 on another machine in a couple days so will definitely try your instructions. Thanks for the help.
