Re: [ns] Validation failed.

Hi Padma,

I checked the output files of the tests and found out that they are empty.
It seems, I am not sure that in the test-suite-TEST-NAME.tcl file, when
the line
"exec $PERL ../../bin/getrc -s 2 -d 3 all.tr |  $PERL ../../bin/raw2xg -s
0.01 -m 90 -t $file > temp.rands"
was executed, some error occured, which cause the program to stop and
leave an empty outup file. I guess It is caused by the ns/bin/getrc file,
because when I run it separately it gives the following error massage,
------
usage: getrc -s node1 [options] [trace file...]

get trace files that match certain criteria related to source, dest or
flow-id

options:
        -o outfile      write subset trace to output file
        -b              bi-directional, i.e. gather lines
        -d node2        specify destination
        -f flowid       specify flow id
        -e              get event-trace
