Anything else?

The remote build works fine (maven/ant/java) but this error comes up after the build "archiveArtifacts" task. This used to work, at least we think, we were able to run this successfully for a while before this came up.

As a test we re-installed the plugin and it worked for a day or so before the same error comes up.

Also, doing the same from the master jenkins node works as expected.
