To be precise - the actual download will always be from the akamai 
server. As far as I understand it:

- pca/wget asks sunsolve which redirects the query to getupdates2
- getupdates2 verifies the SOA data and the entitlement and redirects to
   akamai if the user is allowed to get the patch.
- the patch zip file itself is downloaded from akamai.

The problem as seen in Richard's logfile is that getupdates2 denies the 
request at first, but when it's asked often enough, it gives its 
acknowledgement and makes the redirect to akamai. That's something that 
must be fixed on Sun's side; actually, I was afraid that splitting the 
sunsolve service onto three servers would end up in exactly this kind of 
problems which are hard to track down.
