Dear GMX users,

We are using GROMACS version 3.2.1. I am trying to do
simulated annealing. But when I use the following 
parameters and do the MD, it is working with the
reference temperature and not with which is given in
the parameter file.. 

And I tried with the example parameters which is given
in the manual(version 3.2). For that MD also the job
running with the reference temperature and not with
the parameters from the *.mdp file. In both MD runs
the temperature starts with 0K and drastically
increases to 300 K and stays there as shown below.

this is my md.mdp file
