Hello Tom, If you remember some ns-2.34 validation tests failed on my machine (MAC OS Lion, 10.7.3, Intel Core i7), so I installed ns-2-35 and still the validation failed for:
./test-all-tcpLinux ./test-all-tcpHighspeed /test-all-red ./test-all-cbq Then you proposed that I send the output of ./validate >& validate.log to you, but I have not yet received any news from you or some one else regarding this problem (so I forward my last email again , see below). BTW, in your last email, you said that: "If you aren't using these specific models in your work, you have less to worry about." I would like to do some simulations for IEEE 802.11 MAC layer and also use some routing protocols , for sure that validation tests failures for TCP will not be a problem, my only concern is that these tests fail: /test-all-red ./test-all-cbq Do you think that will cause a problem for my simulations if I these models do not work properly on my machine? Thanks in advance for your reply, Kind regards, Behnaz Begin forwarded message: > From: Behnaz Bostanipour <behnaz.bostanip...@unil.ch> > Subject: Re: [ns] ns-2.34 validation tests fail (64bit-processor) > Date: 10 août 2012 16:53:33 HAEC > To: behnaz.bostanip...@unil.ch > > Thanks for your reply.
