Re: [ns] Validation failed.

["hjj" <huang008@ms6.hinet.net>]

I have also solved the validation problem finally, but without using
Morten's method. (Thank's anyway.)
The key is that I found out that there already exists perl 5.6.0 in RedHat
7.2, after rebuilt my entire linux system.
And, without installing another perl (from the ns-2 website), all the
validation tests passed successfully.
The prior validation problem may be a result of a bad perl installation.
