This error (which is horribly non-specific) is an issue with
communication with the BDII used to get information about the source
and destination systems.
It is likely that the issue is not with se03, but with QMUL WNs <->
the RAL and Imperial Top-level BDIIs.
I'll let Chris comment on what end the problem is at...
