Eric, It took me a while to get my setup working. I kept running into
Resolving proxy_name... proxy_IP Connecting to proxy_name|proxy_IP|:80... connected. Proxy request sent, awaiting response... 503 Service Unavailable 2010-11-29 16:33:09 ERROR 503: Service Unavailable. I finally figured out that if I added --sshost=getupdates.oracle.com to my command string, it worked. "sshost" means "Sunsolve Host"; nothing to do with "ssh" as I first thought. I also include --wgetproxy in my command string although I guess I'm being redundant since I have it in $HOME/.wgetrc as well. What kind of output do you get if you include "--debug"?

Sunsolve credentials won't work with the new getupdates.oracle.com, AFAIK.

I'm still able to get downloads, as of yesterday Japan time, from the sunsolve.sun.com url in the PCA application. Do I need to modify the url's in the script to read getupdates.oracle.com manually or is a new pca script forth coming? I have already done a find and replace, it attempts to get the patchdiag.xref but it fails stating: "Trying https://getupdates.oracle.com/ (1/1) Failed (Unknown Error) Failed (patch not found)" Installing 144560-02 (2/2) Failed - missing patch file (07:36:46/00:00:00/00:01:30, 2/2, 0/0/2) And then lists the summary of total, successful, skipped and failed.
