Re #16.

1) My question was : Why don't you use Fedora 12 to write your above posts ?
2) Are you behind a firewall ? Or does something else prevent yum to work ?
... Please disable SELinux : Must be done anyway. Else no NCTUns function.

Knudfl for your information I removed every file in yum.repos.d and only kept the second repo file you sent to me, is it okay?

Re #18.

Please read all your Menu entries. It's essential to known a little bit about your OS.

Re #20.

Please replace your file in /etc/yum/repos.d with the one attached to post #15.

! ! Your current link for update has a typo :
"http://archives.frdoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/updates/12/i386/repodata"

I.e. it is fedora, not frdora.

Wonder where you got that faulty text ....

Hello Knudfl. Thank you very much for your help!
Finally the problem is solved. The problem were an internet connection to download and install missing files. So I followed the ff steps and it works
1) comment all mirrors and uncomment all baseurl but change the site of the url to http://archives. Fedoraproject.org...
2) run the command yum groupinstall "development libraries" "development tools" "legacy software development" then it will download as well as upgrade automatically.
3) yum install mkinitrd -p Xterm
Then it finishes all the necessary steps, after this we can install NCTUNS with out any problem. But before all of the above steps there have to be a very good internet connection. And we have to set the settings of Virtualbox to connect to internet with out a problem.

The other thing is I need the source code of Freeway mobility model and tutorials about simulating with NCTUNS -6.0. If u have any information pls share to me.
