RE: ns2 help!

["Mena, Art" <Art.Mena@West.Boeing.com>]

Make sure that the file was downloaded cleanly. If you are not certain
download it again.
If you are certain that the file downloaded OK then you may be untaring
and unzipping 
in the wrong order. To extract the allinone I used the following command

	cat ns-allinone-2.1b2.tar.gz | gunzip | tar -xvf - 

This creates all the directories as well. To make it easy I put the
following in my .alias 
file to handle tared/zipped files.

	alias gcat      'cat \!* | gunzip | tar -tvf - | more'
	alias gtar      'cat \!* | gunzip | tar -xvf - '  
	alias targ      'tar -cvf - \!* | gzip -c > \!*.tgz'

Hope this helps.
Don't know about win95, maybe somebody else has done it.
