Re: [ns] problem installing ns-allinone-2.1b8a

[Shashi Guruprasad <shash@cs.utah.edu>]

It appears that an ISI specific .configure was mistakenly packaged in the
ns directory of the tar.gz . After you extract the package, just cd into
ns2.1b8a directory and remove the file .configure . Rerun install and the
problem goes away.

Could someone@ISI fix the package?
