[SLUG] Another Optus cable question


Is there any trick to getting the Optus admin pages to load
up under Linux?  I can only do things like add a new email address from
Windows.  The page loads up as blank under Netscape under Linux.  I
noticed on Windows that the "blank" page under Windows then asked if I'd
accept a cookie, twice. Under Linux, I didn't get asked.  I think I have
both versions set to reject cookies except those from the site being
visited, and to ask me before accepting cookies.

How do others fare in this regard?  Is there some trick to it?

And, if I try konqeuror or galleon, is there some setting you need
there?  I noticed that I get a 404 error in konqeuror if I try to
access the http://www/ page (after the page loadds correctly for a
fraction of a second!).  I had to set the "Pretend to be Netscape 3"
option for the domain "optsuhome.com.au" to get that far, as I recall.

Is there a URL for these kind of tips for Linux Optus cable users?  I
did fetch and read all the ones mentioned here over the last few
months, but didn't see anything on these topics.

(If the answer is "there is none", then I'll try to scrape up some
spare time to write my own, if I make any progress.)
