Dear Corinna or anyone who can help,
I ran 'make' on my cygwin to compile one of my c
program and got into 

the 'cannot find -lX11' error. I searched the cygwin
archives and found 

Corinna's reply to someone running into the same
problem back in Sep 

2003. The solution was to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to
look for the 

libX11 files. Thus I added my own CYGWIN_LIBX11 path
to my .bashrc as 

such:

export CYGWIN_LIBX11=/cygwin/usr/X11R6/lib
export NS_HOME=/home/CHOY_PENG_FAI/ns-allinone-2.26/
export 
PATH=$NS_HOME/tcl8.3.2/unix:$NS_HOME/tk8.3.2/unix:$NS_HOME/bin:$PATH
export 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$NS_HOME/tcl8.3.2/unix:$NS_HOME/tk8.3.2/unix:$NS_HOME/o
tcl-1.0a8:$CYGWIN_LIBX11:$NS_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export TCL_LIBRARY=$NS_HOME/tcl8.3.2/library

However, when I ran 'make' again, I still received the
same error. Did 

I make any mistake somewhere? Kindly advise.
Thank you.
