in the ENSC Graduate Computer Room ASB 9884.
If you use a workstation in the CS Graduate Computer Room ASB 10803,
please
ssh to payette.ensc.sfu.ca.
2. In order to properly set your environment, add lines to your ".login" file:
    if ( -e /ensc/local2/opnet/10.5.A/sys/unix/bin) then
    setenv OPNETHOME /ensc/local2/opnet/10.5.A/sys/unix
    setenv PATH ${PATH}:${OPNETHOME}/bin
    endif
3. logout and login
or
source .login
4. mkdir op_admin
NOTE: op_admin directory must be directly under the user's home
directory and with the correct permissions.
(Do chmod 755 op_admin if necessary".)
5. cd op_admin
Copy to the op_admin directory file env_db10.5
Edit the first line in "mod_dirs" section of the file "env_db11.0" and
replace "/ensc/dept1/ljilja/op_models"
with the path of your own "op_models" directory.
NOTE: Make sure that you are the owner of the file "env_db11.0",
and that the file has correct permissions.
(Do chmod 644 env_db10.5 if necessary.)
6. Run Opnet by typing opnet.
7. If you wish to construct your own models, you need to edit file
"env_db10.5" located in the directory "op_admin".
Add your own home directory paths in the section "mod_dirs".
NOTE: Please make sure that your own model directories are
listed as the first entries in the file "env_db10.5" in the section
"mod_dirs".
8. Ignore the error messages in the command line if Opnet works fine.
They are from commercial packages that are not available to us.
REMINDER: Remove any reference to earlier versions of OPNET from
your .login file (such as refernces to opnet10.5).
