My suggestion would be to open the Windows Services console and make
sure the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service and/or the RPC Locator
service are running.

Thanks. I've done that. Both are running, but I have the same error. I
also tried a few different options in the logon section, same result.
Any other clues?

The "some_machine" is just a stub for whatever machine you want to
install it on, it isn't meant to be used literally. If you just want
to install it on your local box, remove "some_machine", e.g. service =
Service.new.
