Error running Lan examples

[Nguyen Huu Thanh <thanh@informatik.unibw-muenchen.de>]

Hi folks,

I encounter problems when trying LAN examples in ~ns/tcl/ex. For
example, when I ran vlantest-hier.tcl, ns claims "invalid command
Mac/Csma/Cd". I found later that all Mac/Csma/Cd parameters in
~ns/tcl/lan/vlan.tcl and ns-mac.tcl are commented. I uncomment them and
rebuild the source codes, including mac-csma.cc and mac-multihop.cc.
However, mac-csma.cc failed to compile with the following error message:

Does this mean that the LAN simulation in ns-allinone-2.1b5 haven't been
completed?

Thanks for any hint to the problem.
