Hi Tom, After searching the ns-list archives, I found help with the x86_64-unknown problem.

This took me a little further and now I have a new error: checking for tclsh... /home/ssita/ns-allinone-2.27/tcl8.4.5/unix/tclsh configure: error: Installation of tcl seems incomplete or can't be found automatically. Please correct the problem by telling configure where tcl is using the argument --with-tcl=/path/to/package (perhaps after installing it), or the package is not required, disable it with --with-tcl=no. otcl-1.8 configuration failed! Exiting ... Please check http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-problems.html for common problems and bug fixes. The solution for this seems to be to compile pieces of tcl, tclcl, otcl and tk individually. No matter what the order, the interdependencies are never resolved. Can you or anyone else with experience on compiling for a 64-bit machine help me out?

Krishnakumar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sat, August 18, 2007 9:26 am To: "Tom Henderson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom, What I sent earlier was by running ./configure from within OTcl as I was testing the updated configure files. Below is the error when ./install is run from the ns2 root dir. There are 2 things in question: 1. Why is it looking for .configure? and not ./configure 2. is a different ./config.sub required for 64 bit?
