Hi,

I am trying to install ns-2 on Windows XP.  I installed cygwin.  Then
I did a tar xvf on the ns-allinone-2.31 package.

Following this I did a ./install in the ns-allinone-2.31 directory,
but this fails.

The final warning message is given below.  Other warnings that were
received during the ./install (but were ignored) are given below this.
 I
would really appreciate it if one of you could let me know what the problem is.

Thanks,
Arvind
