Aha, the dreaded anycast. I didn't think to look for that since they were using 
oppedahl.com names for the servers. And indeed, my tcptraceroutes go to Chicago 
from one test machine, an unidentified location from the other. Sadly, they 
don't appear to do the hostname.bind or id.server trick (or I'm requesting it 
incorrectly).

I suppose this needs to turn into a trouble report to GoDaddy, though I wonder 
how hard it will be to find someone who would understand it. . .

Bill.
