Hi.  I don't know much about Java deployment.  But I've got a program I've written on my own, as hobby, and I'd like to make it available.  Is this tutorial still a good example?  http://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Using_JOGL_in_Java_Web_Start

I'm trying to get JOGL from jogamp.org, so I don't have to include it.  I'm at the step where I try to test it with javaws myproj.jnlp, and I get an exception in a popup:

com.sun.deploy.net.FailedDownloadException: Unable to load resource: http://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-current/jogl-all-awt.jnlp
        at com.sun.deploy.net.DownloadEngine.actionDownload(Unknown Source)
        at com.sun.deploy.net.DownloadEngine.downloadResource(Unknown Source)
. . .

and in another tab there is a wrapped exception:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect
        at java.net.DualStackPlainSocketImpl.connect0(Native Method)
        at java.net.DualStackPlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Unknown Source)
        at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.doConnect(Unknown Source)
        at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(Unknown Source)
. . .

I'll admit to not using the app in the tutorial, but just trying to get my own to work, but I've done things the way the tutorial says, following the conditions for using jogl hosted on jogamp.org.

Do you know what this is likely to be?

I've got to go learn about signing as well.  Might this be related?

thanks
