[pca] PCA not finding patches even with an account tied to a contract.

Hi,

I ran into this patch downloading issue today (March 2) as well.
Running pca parallel on several servers, with same SunSolve account
and same support contract - on some servers, downloading works without
any problems, but others have problems with 30+ patches.

If I truss the pca process and test the actual wget command that
is used for downloads, like

# /usr/sfw/bin/wget -S
"https://sunsolve.sun.com/pdownload.do?target=119313-25&method=h"
--ca-certificate=/usr/sbin/pca --header="Authorization: Basic
xxmybase64encodedsecretstuffherexx=" -O -

then on problematic servers I get a "403: Forbidden" reply from
Sun's server and on others it just proceeds with the download.
Maybe an host IP related session or authentication issue? How
do I delete the cookie? :)
