update tools: Response code 403 errors
Am getting "Response code was 403" from several different sources. My service plan was registered almost a month ago, and I was not having any issue till about a week ago. I am able to log into the sunsolve and sunconnection sites, and am able to register (have redone this multiple times) successfully.
Using GUI Update Manager, on opening, I get message "Error: Unable to download document: "collection/default" Response code was 403"
Looking at Installed Patches, when I click on one that was installed recently, I get "Unable to download document: ReadMe/xxxxx-xx: Cannot Connect to Retrieve README-xxxxxx-xx Authentication failed due to bad credentials"
on command line, ran "smpatch analyze -@", and got "Failure: Response code was 403"

It appears that I am no longer being authenticated by https://getupdates1.sun.com
When I go to sunconnection.sun.com, and log in, My system is there, and it is checking in, but am unable to select the system. Also, on the Summary page, it is not showing any update information, though I know there are updates that I have not installed.
Back at the Update Manager GUI, I am now getting authentication error even on startup of update manager. Have re-registered yet again, but without resolving the authentication problem.
Is this problem on my end, or is it on sunconnection.sun.com end? How can I resolve?
Thanks to all in advance,
Jace
