Hi,

I cannot connect to the noise gen using the web service. It just tries
connecting and then gives up

Output from console:


shivesh at console.grid:~$ wget 'http://instrument1.orbit-lab.org/initialize'
--09:58:46--  http://instrument1.orbit-lab.org/initialize
           => `initialize'
Resolving instrument1.orbit-lab.org... 10.3.0.15
Connecting to instrument1.orbit-lab.org|10.3.0.15|:80...

Any clues on what might be the possible problems ?

Thanks

Shivesh
