The way that ns stores addresses has been updated in the newer ns
snapshots - in the new addressing scheme, there is a structure that
contains an (IP) addr and a port number; in the old addressing (ns2.1b5a)
scheme addr and port information were stored in a single int.
The tutorial linked to from the ns website has been updated to be
consistent with the new addressing scheme.
