You have no specific problem with your Tcl.
Since you have installed it, you only have to
provide the path to it during configure with the
following parameter:
./configure --with-tcl={your tcl8.4.5 path} --with-tcl-ver=8.4.5--with-tk={your
tk8.4.5 path} --with-tk-ver=8.4.5
What is meant with "path" is i.e. /usr/bin/tcl8.4.5, or whereever is your
Tcl, Tk, etc
I also attach a page that might be useful to you when you will install the
other packages
for NS-2.
Try the instructions found here:
http://nslab.ee.ntu.edu.tw/courses/ns-tutorial/labs/lab1.html
I have used this method and I installed, with user priviledges, Tcl8.4.5,
Tk8.4.5, otcl, tclcl,
ns-2.29, nam-1.11, etc in my home directory under Debian Linux 3.1 where I'm
working.
I also got the same error as you when I did not specify the path to the Tcl,
Tk, etc.
Try the page above and I think that you will have no problems
