Re: nam intall problem

Looks like an ldpath problem.  I've been having problems related to
static/dynamic library linking for Solaris which is related and may help
you out......

First, a question.  Has anyone been able to compile a (completely)
statically linked version of ns-2 on Solaris?  The problem seems to be
that a lot of Solaris calls use dynamic library calls which are in a
shared object library (libdl.so).  So when you go to statically link the
final binary, it poops out since it can't statically link to a shared
object library.  Right now, I've just been compiling a dynamically
linked version of the simulator and passing the compiler the following,
in order to statically link all the non-standard libraries into the
simulator.

 -Xlinker -Bstatic -l<libraries to statically link> -Bdynamic

(So that I hopefully don't have to install libotcl, libTclcl, etc. on
every single machine I want to run a simulation on)
