installing on RedHat7.2

... Nothing to be done for 'all'

Please have a look into the folders, and find that
these things were compiled seven years ago :

When the executable's already are created, there
really is nothing to do.

Example : file epa-tr-stat
" epa-tr-stat: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386,
version 1 (FreeBSD), for FreeBSD 4.4, dynamically linked
(uses shared libs), FreeBSD-style, not stripped "

If they work, then OK. ( Else use 'make clean' inside
each directory, and run 'make' again. As said by John VV.)

also WHY are you building it on " '/root/.gnome-desktop/" the root desktop ??

you should build it in /home/"your-user name"/ns-2.1b8
or /usr/mybuilds/src/ns-2.1b8

As John VV said :
"WHY are you building it on " '/root/.gnome-desktop/" the root desktop ?"

/root/ is not supposed to be used for anything .. never.
The risk is that you trash the system when doing builds as root.
And then there are all the security risks,
And by the way, ns2 may not be usable in that location.

The standard build location is in /home/ , e.g.
/home/"user"/ns2/ns-2.1b8-mcast/ , where you of course will do all
build as ordinary user. The root function is for admin tasks only.

.....
John VV : For your information, ns-2.34 is the latest version.

ns-2.34 ok i do not use it so 2.29 was what i saw on sourceforge

Dear John,
Thanks alot for your useful information,
yes the Ns version that i use is very old, and i choose it because i want to work with ADMR protocol, i found it only in ns-2.1b8-mcast, maybe it's in other version of ns and i don't know!
may be you or other friends can find a better version for me?

knudfl · 11-01-2009, 09:53 AM

Ref. post # 15 :
Please have a look into the folder ' ns-2.1b8/ ' for ns(1)
.. or use the ls command : ls ns-2.1b8/ns*

.. Is the file 'ns' present ? ?
If yes, please do this command : cp ns ns.1
.. and you have a chance, that 'make install' will work.

No matter, it may be a surplus file, it can be deleted later,
if you wish.

และ ... as you can see from the above, the "extra file" is ns.1 .
And it is not installed at all, so it's only half a bug. ..

..

I managed to get ns-2.1b8-mcast installed in Debian 4 Etch ,
which is the newest Linux with a workable gcc-2.95 / g++-2.95 .
The trick was to edit the Makefile.in , in tclcl-1.0b12 and ns-2.1b8-mcast :
( Ditto for nam-1.9 )

Code:

From :
CC	= @CC@
CPP	= @CXX@

to :
CC	= gcc-2.95
CPP	= g++-2.95

I could not build tcl8.3.x ( autotools misfit ? )
so the system tcl8.3.5 / tk-8.3.5 was used.
'otcl' version : 1.0a8. And otcl was build with gcc-4.1 .

What is " ns-allinone-2.1b8.patch " ? ?

Please provide a link to the patch .. if you have it.

well the gcc 2.96 compiler qualifys for doing your dissertation on- "Ancient software from the pre-windows xp date in history" , or entitled " linux before the modern gui"

# 29 John VV : 1) you are commenting a three month old post.

2) Many teachers tend to stick to the things,
they remember best from their own youth, thus
assigning 12 year old homework to the students.
