Converting a SCW Security Policy into a GPO

I'm trying to convert a security policy into a GPO. I used the Security Configuration Wizard to create the policy and saved it as an XML file. I then tried using the scwcmd command to convert it to a GPO. I first browsed to the directory that my XML file was in, and then typed the following:

scwcmd transform /p:70-293.xml /g:SCW-GPO

After pressing enter, I get a brief pause, and then the following error:

Command completed with error.
Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller, either because the machine is unavailable, or access has been denied.

Any ideas as to what the problem might be? The exercise is in Chapter 9, Lesson 4, of the 70-293 MS-Press book incase anyone has it.

Thanks in advance!
