Help with code in the book Make: Getting Started with Arduino

For some reason I had to use port initialized like this to get it to compile:

processing.serial.Serial port;

The reason is discussed here:

Type Serial is ambiguous

I’m new to the Processing language. I am trying to run the code for the Arduino Networked Lamp as detailed in the Getting started with Arduino book. I’ve downloaded the program titled ex06 01 processing and I get the following error when I compile it: The type Serial is ambiguous on line 17: Serial port;
