ACLM Utility Error

Question

I've done quite a bit of research and still haven't found the answer to my question so bear with me for the details.
I'm using the ACLM Utility to export Financial Reporting artifacts from 9.3.1. I've read the ACLM Utility PDF:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/hss_alcm_util.pdf
So, I'm setting up my XML Package File and trying to pull objects from the repository to a file (rather than a target application). However, it appears that the pull is failing because this is the error I'm getting in the stdout_console.log for each object:
11 Jun 2012 21:50:53,523 ALWAYS [Thread-30] stdout - [06 11 21:50:53,523] [ERROR] Exception occured while exporting
com.hyperion.reporting.util.HyperionReportException: The object requested: [/Repository Objects/Grid-A] does not exist in the repository
     at com.hyperion.reporting.hrfoundation.HRFoundationClient.getObject(Unknown Source)
     at com.hyperion.reporting.hrfoundation.ReportStoreManagerImpl.retrieveObject(Unknown Source)
     at com.hyperion.reporting.hrfoundation.ReportStoreManagerImpl.retrievePersistentObject(Unknown Source)
     at com.hyperion.reporting.webviewer.HRHDPBean.doExport(Unknown Source)
     at com.hyperion.reporting.webviewer.HRHDPBean.processRequest(Unknown Source)
     at com.hyperion.expimp.fr.FRHelper.exportObjectToByteArray(Unknown Source)
     at com.hyperion.expimp.ExportObjectsHandler$SerializeZipHandler.run(Unknown Source)
Grid-A is the artifact I'm using for this example. It in fact exists in the repository, and the utility seems to be picking up the repository items since I'm not specifying them by name. But then after finding them for the purpose of exporting them, then it fails to see it as existing in the repository.
I looked at the 9.3.1 read me and this particular error [The object requested... does not exist in the repository] is listed under Financial Reporting as a defect fixed in the release.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/hs_93100_readme.pdf
I also took a look at other HyperionReportException errors and found out that it might have to do with the IP and FR Server not being in the hosts file:

And that's where I'm at right now. Trying to figure out how to get the utility to actually find and get the artifacts from the repository.
Thanks in advance for any help you might have.

Thanks for taking the time to check this out. Here's the XML file scrubbed of the server, domain, password:

Here is an example from the resulting listing.xml file:
<resource id="0000012a15947338-0003-0c65-0a601470" path="/Repository Objects/A-Detail Reports/Dev" pathAlias="/00/00000126b/000001" modifiedBy="//USERNAME//" lastUpdated="1280262304600" name="DummyRep" type="application/hyperion-reports-grid" size="-1" />
And this is the resource.xml file:
- <sourceInfo>
<Application>00000116d0ac6283-0000-0e31-0a601470</Application>
<Product>HAVA</Product>
