Not authorised will be a response from the server.  No-one on this, 
public, peer support, mailing list has any knowledge of your server.

We can guess that it is Oracle's own internal server, and we can further 
guess that it is an XMPP one, but that won't help to solve your problem.

If it is Oracle's own server, we have been told that further information 
can be obtained from  <http://my.oracle.com/site/git/1591/index.htm>, if 
you have access to Oracle's private network.
