Installation of Ns-2.33 on Cygwin

  • TO install NS-2.33 on Cygwin ,You need Cygwin 1.5.25 or greater
  • Cygwin 1.7.1 is recommended.
  • NS-2.33 is not automatically installed on Cygwin due to lack of Dynamic loading Library Package.
  •  The Key point  is  "Remove those Dynamic loading libraries from ns-2.33"
  •  Once you remove ,the installation will succeed.
Steps to be Followed

  • Download Ns-2.33 HERE.

  • Once extracted ns-allinone-2.33 folder ,switch to ~/ns-allinone-2.33/ns-2.33
  • Here open Configure File,and check for "-ldl" .
  • Replace all "-ldl" in the file with empty
  • Finally Go to ns-allinone-2.33 folder and type ./install
