i would say in the ns directory, where all the .cc and .h files are. for ns. Nam
is in a separate directory usually. Maybe the problem is a tcl related. try
lauching nam and other apps from a tcl script? This is only my 2c, as I have
never ran ns on windoze and probably would get nightmares from trying...
posting to [email protected] is preferable than @mash.cs.berkeley as that last
one surely will end up not working anymore sooner or later...
