I've seen a similar error (see tcl/lib/ns-lib.tcl I think ?) when ns
can't route a packet. For example,  if you construct a straight 20 hop
path, but there is no link defined between routers 4 and 5, ns will
generate the  'no target' error when  a packet coming from say  router 1
targeted to router 20 arrives at router 4.

hope this helps,
