    I wrote a wrapper and ran it from cron, and it was working great. Suddenly,
    I began getting errors when using security_patch_check, as demonstrated
    below:

    $/opt/sec_mgmt/spc/bin/security_patch_check -r

    We do not use a proxy server, so this is not the problem. Has anyone else
    seen this? It's puzzling to me, because like I said, it used to work just
    fine. Then it began having problems intermittently. Now, I can't get the
    script to be successful anytime.
