Definitely not just you. http://sunsolve.sun.com redirects to
http://identity.sun.com/<bla> for me, and took several attempts to log in
successfully. (No, it wasn't just me fat-fingering my password.) I'm going
to take this opportunity to download the latest patch clusters, just in
case...

Cheers,

It was certainly happening at the back-end of last week, when it took me a
whole day to get three or four Solaris 10 patches with PCA. Sunsolve and
docs. are ALWAYS slow for me, always have been.

Yes, there was an interruption for about 24 hours around June 2nd/3rd, see:

Sometimes (not this time), SunSolve service issues are also posted on:

As far as non-interactive access to patches is concerned, we usually
moan about those on the pca mailing list immediately. You can check the
archive if you don't want to subscribe, see:
