 Just a joke.


May be it is because the whole godaddy interface is  .NET, it cries over
my OpenBSD and debian but would zoom over Windo$e

my 2 cents

thanks kili.
doing that does speed things up, but of course i can't use most of godaddy.
i tried mozilla and things work just fine so it all seems to be a konqueror 
issue - almost like it gets into some sort of accummulation loop and just 
goes slow. i'll ask on the kde boards.

the ftp is just so strange though - tried ncftp today and same thing!
it's almost like we lose the password and disconnect somehow (when i ftp in 
with mozilla and try anything, i'm asked to provide a password again).

i tried openbsd 3.9 and got the same thing.

i was reading in the openbsd docs that the pf filter can get unhappy with ftp, 
so i'll look further into that.

thanks again to all.

inexplicable behaviour on godaddy.com

2006-05-03 Thread prad
i'm using konqueror and everything is fantastic.
except when i go to godaddy.com

things are slow as molasses:
the mouse takes several seconds to change from a hand to an arrow when leaving 
a link
typing into forms takes several seconds per letter
ftp access is quick until i try to download anything (this is true even if i 
use the standard ftp or axyftp or cftp) - then it usually doesn't work at 
all.

the ftp thing is particularly strange because
1. ftp works great anywhere else other than godaddy
2. there are no problems when using freebsd going to godaddy
3. if i ssh into a freebsd box and ftp to godaddy everything is cool
4. if i ssh into another openbsd box and ftp to godaddy it's bad

all this seems to suggest that openbsd doesn't like godaddy.com for some 
reason (or visa versa).

i am not too familiar with ftp (i generally use fish anyway) and whether there 
are settings that need to be tweaked.

thanks in advance for any ideas!
