I have set up a couple of DTS local packages to run ActiveX scripts creating XML files and copying them to our webserver (on the same domain).

I can run them OK manually via the 'Execute' package command in the drop down list when I right click on them and also get the 'Package successfully run' message back on running them, but when I schedule them to run overnight I find the SQL Server Agent reports them as 'failed' .

What am I doing wrong

This looks like a permissions issue...do you have a proxy account setup for the SQL Agent Look here for info...http://www.support.microsoft.com/kb/890775

As referred if you are scheduling the DTS package then make sure to check privileges for the SQLAgent service account on those process, you can start the SQLAgent using a local account with Admin privleges to complete the task.
