smpatch on sol-10

Hi All-

I recently installed Solaris-10 06/06 on two new T2000's. Both are running the
Developer Cluster with slight modifications (add Freeware Shells, remove Apache,
remove WBEM, etc.)

After getting basic settings done, I ran updatemanager to install the latest
patch sets. My first run installed 119254-27 and 121118-08 which are updates to
the smpatch suite. I know there are more than two patches, so I rechecked for
updates. There are 128 new patches, but I can't get them to install on either
machine in either GUI or CLI mode.

Errors on one machine:

Failure: Cannot connect to retrieve Database/current.zip:
sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path validation failed:
java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: signature check failed

The other machine runs 'smpatch analyze' without problems, but if I try to do
'smpatch download' or 'smpatch update' I get this error:

        <patch#>: This patch could not be found

Two questions: Why are the error messages so different? Anybody know how to
fix this and get patches working again?

TIA,
-Sal
