Re: [ns] using filter,can any body find the error in this code?

[Tarik Alj <aljtarik@inrs-telecom.uquebec.ca>]

first you are using deprecated stuff : Agent/CBR should be 
Application/Traffic/CBR and should run over an Agent/UDP.

second I would look into :
$n4 attach $filter

and

$filter set offset_ [PktHdr_offset PacketHeader/Common size_]

is the syntax there correct, considering your code is deprecated?

You might want to change your Null agents for LossMonitors so you could easily  
check wether they receive packets at all, that's "equivalent" to trace-all 
thought.

Last you could run gdb and see what happens...
