Welcome to LQ.

[code omitted because of length], etc. etc.: Has been answered a thousand times.
Just ask Google or 'LQ Search'

The usual solution :
cd ns-allinone-2.3x/tk8.4x/ &&
wget ftp://ftp.swin.edu.au/gentoo-portage/dev-lang/tk/files/tk-8.4-lastevent.patch
&& patch -p0 < tk-8.4-lastevent.patch && cd ../ && ./install

Also : Nam is a separate application : Any 'nam' can be used.

64bit binary https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B7S25...CN3jzIcL&hl=en

>>> Unpack, and 'cp nam /usr/local/bin/'

Thanks for the reply.Now my nam is working.....I need another help.I am working on address autoconfiguration in MANET using ns.But the problem is that I dont have any reference for the practical implementation.I will be very helpful if anybody can help me to provide some existing reference using which I can proceed in my work?

I am again facing a problem.Actually I am very much new in LINUX.....so don't have that much idea about its problems.Last time my fedora has been hanged and so I forcibly shut down my Fedora 11.And now its not starting.....asking for the root password and then going to an infinite loop.Somebody please help me............

When I am trying to create my new agent and calling from the TCL script,its showing the following error:

while executing
"Agent/MyAgentOtcl create _o3 "
invoked from within
"catch "$className create $o $args" msg"
invoked from within
"if [catch "$className create $o $args" msg] {
if [string match "__FAILED_SHADOW_OBJECT_" $msg] {
delete $o
return ""
}
global errorInfo
error "class $..."
(procedure "new" line 3)
invoked from within
"new Agent/MyAgentOtcl"
invoked from within
"set myagent [new Agent/MyAgentOtcl]"
(file "MyAgent.tcl" line 5)

Since my agent is a simple one and is not transferring any packets,so I have made changes in the ns-default.tcl file and the Makefile.But when I am going to perform make from ns-2.33,it is again shoing some error like:

Makefile:230: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?). Stop.

Somebody please help me..........

Please edit post # 5 to use code tags : Either use the ( # ) button
in the 'Advanced Editor' : Edit > Go Advanced.
Highlight the text and press the # - button.

Or write [/code] at text end, and [code] at code text start.
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi....php?do=bbcode
This action is important. Must be used, when you show the lines
in your Makefile : One line before the added object, and one line
after the edits. Like this example (line 311-314 were added)

Code:

   310		wpan/p802_15_4trace.o wpan/p802_15_4transac.o \
   311		wcett/wcett_logs.o wcett/wcett.o \
   312		wcett/wcett_rtable.o wcett/wcett_rqueue.o \
   313		mac/macng.o mac/maccon.o \
   314		mac/macngenhanced.o \
   315		$(OBJ_STL)

No spaces should be used for "the eight spaces" distance.
Please replace with one <TAB>.

also keep in mind that fedora 11 IS and HAS been UNSUPPORTED for the last 9 months .
there has been NO security updates to 11 for 9 months and there NEVER will be .

the current version of fedora is 14 and ns2 dose build on it with the update patches and patches for the current gcc

For those who have no idea what they're talking about, here are some links:
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/nam/

BTW, ns was already in the Wikipedia®, nam was not. I have updated the nam page as well as the ns entry.

Anyone who is interested & knowledgable, please add to my beginnings there.

Hi,
I too am getting the same issue as mentioned in post #1 on Fedora 13 for ns-2.31. Whatever steps you have mentioned in #2, should that be done right from the beginning or can we install ns-allinone-2.31 and then again install the tk stuff?

Also, cp nam /usr/local/bin/ - is it required?

Should be done anyway. Is the default location when you do :
cd ns-allinone-2.xx/nam-<version>/ ; su ; make install

No reason to use the old nam-1.13, when we have version 1.14.

( The patching of tk must be done to compile a usable tk.
With an OK tk you may then be lucky compiling a usable nam.)
