Smpatch analyze fails to run on Solaris 10 Sparc systems

Question

I have two Sparc Solaris 10 systems that I am unable to get to successfully patch. The 'sconadm' tool runs correctly, but smpatch bombs out with one of the following two errors:
Failure: Cannot connect to retrieve current2.zip: You are not authorized to access this service.
Failure: Cannot connect to retrieve detectors.jar: You are not authorized to access this service.'dmesg' suggests that it is failing to send the correct credentials to the update server:

I've found threads of people with similar issues, but none of the presented solutions have worked for me. I've tried updating all the related patches, but to no avail.
I've downloaded the 'suc.sh' tool and supplied the output from one of my servers:
