[ns] patch doesn't work



Title: patch doesn't work

Hi,

I download some patches from the read-only CVS history, but when I use patch < patchfile, it gave me the following error:

patch < webtraf_patch.h
Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|===================================================================
|RCS file: /usr/src/mash/cvsweb-repository/ns-2/webcache/webtraf.h,v

done

I tried several ways (parameters -u....) but it didn't work. Actually I could use patch command on my machine to patch files from NS when I downloaded NS. I am wondering if there is any change to the way you write patch files? Or I need to update my patch exe?

Thanks,
