please help me to resolve this

install fedora 20

please stay current
fedora 14 is 6 versions and 3+ years out of date

Ns2 prerequisites, Fedora :
# yum install gcc-c++ compat-gcc-34-c++ automake autoconf libtool libXmu-devel

* ns-2.29 :
$ tar xvf ns-allinone-2.29.3.tar.gz
$ cd ns-allinone-2.29/
$ export CC=gcc34 CXX=g++34 && ./install

thanks Knudfl,

I did the above given steps and ns2.29 installed successfully.


but the NAM was not working. I followed some of the links for the same problem on this forum and did the following things:


pasted the unpacked nam-1.14-x86_64 folder in ns-allinone-2.29 folder and then did the following

>$ Su
pw:******

#cd ns-allinone-2.29
#cp nam/usr/local/bin


now the NAM is only working when i run my TCL script with ROOT access, I mean only at "#" and not at '$'


Please help me sir...
