-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I ran both tclPosixStr.patch and ns-2.1b6-configure.patch just in case. Can somebody suggest me a solution? I am bent on using the 2.1b6 version because I am trying to work on Hierarchical Mobile IP and the extensions for this are only available for the 2.1b6 version at http://www.comet.columbia.edu/micromobility/software.htm <http://www.comet.columbia.edu/micromobility/software.htm> .

Any suggestions are greatly appretiated.
