ns2 installation problem in FC5
 
I have recently installed ns-allinone-2.29.tar.gz in FC5
However I didn't need to do the ./configure thing
the steps are
tar zxf ns-allinone-2.29.tar.gz
cd ns-allinone-2.29
./install

Thereafter set the PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, & TCL_LIBRARY as per the message generated by the install script
Once the above steps are over, the package is fully setup and can be used.

Can you Please explain step-by-step how to set the PATH , LD_LIBRARY_PATH, & TCL_LIBRARY
I have no idea how to do it.


thank you

The PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH and TCL_LIBRARY can be set in .bashrc file
open terminal
>gedit .bashrc
(add following lines to it suitably modifying the path as in your case, I am posting what I had to add)
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/ns-allinone-2.29/bin
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/ns-allinone-2.29/tcl8.4.11/unix
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/ns-allinone-2.29/tk8.4.11/unix
export PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/sn68/ns-allinone-2.29/otcl-1.11
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/sn68/ns-allinone-2.29/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
TCL_LIBRARY=$TCL_LIBRARY:/home/sn68/ns-allinone-2.29/tcl8.4.11/library
export TCL_LIBRARY
