Hi Sidney,
Thank you for your email. I have tried the followings and all of them does not work. - Window XP, Cygwin 1.7, ns-2.33 - Window XP, Cygwin 1.5, ns-2.33 - Window XP, Cygwin 1.7, ns-2.34 - Window XP, Cygwin 1.5, ns-2.34 - Window 7, Cygwin 1.7, ns-2.33 - Window 7, Cygwin 1.7, ns-2.34 - I guess the other version won't work too. - Ubuntu 9.10, ns-2.33 - Ubuntu 9.10, ns-2.34 I am guessing that the problem is with recent change in gcc package of all Linux distribution. The one that work is Ubuntu 8.04 with ns-2.34. Lupe, you might want to try the same thing. What I do is that I set up a Ubuntu box inside a VMware running on Windows 7. It's a bit of hassle but it works. I will put the instruction up on my blog soon.
