I get the following error "failed to get the xml content" when trying to do anything with replication or pulling down updates. This happened last week. Has anyone seen this before? I have an open ticket with McAfee but was hoping someone had a solution already.

ePO OnDemand Scanning (ODS) may be set to ePO agents. Exclusion lists may be created to apply to these agents.
If a local ODS Scanning job is currently set locally, that job will run regardless...
I am planning on entering subnets within the ePO directory structure. This is to allow autopopulation into correct groups as machines boot into the domains (using startup script). Our infrastructure consists of 1000+ sites (ePO groups) with subnets in each. The groups are nested two deep and...
