Hi

I have a ruby on rails ecommerce application that uses [authorize.net](http://authorize.net)  
to process credit card information. I have the application setup on  
GoDaddy shared server but I can’t seem to connect with the payment  
gateway through active merchant plugin or payment gem. Everything  
works fine in my development environment but GoDaddy support says that  
I have to go through there secure proxy server when using SSL but can  
not provide me any other information. Does anyone know how to get this  
working or have any suggestions for me? Thanks for any help in advance.
