[ns] problem with patch for ns windows
Thanks a lot for your prompt response. I have already gone through the
FAQ and the other guidlines (in fact few times!) and it helped me to
reach this point, but now I am completely stuck.
I am resending my question hope to hear from you soon!
I need to build Ns under Windows 2000. After downloading the components
and compiling, downloaded
New Cygwin DLL 1.1.8 release, patch 25-2, and
Perl 5.6.1-1 from - csociety-ftp.ecn.purdue.edu/pub/cygwin
I moved the ns-tree, putting ns-root under my Cygwin dir.
Following the instructions, when trying to apply the following patch
(written into file.patch):

from ~ns/tcl/test/ directory doing:
patch test-all-template.win file.patch
I get the following message:
Missing header for unified diff at line 2 of patch

Please let me know how shall I proceed and if the above steps are
correct?
Lots of thanks!
