Thank you, Michael and J.  I must be a complete lamer, because I'm just not 
getting this to work.  Here's the latest:

- the original machine that I got Ansible working with now doesn't work. 
win_ping returns the dreaded "WINRM CONNECTION ERROR: 401 Unauthorized. 
basic auth failed", despite the fact that I get a "411" when i try the curl 
test command. 
- i got Ansible working on a second machine, although I don't know which 
combination of of things I did (many) to get it working, despite the fact 
that I get a "401" when i try the curl test command.

I ran through the checklist that J provided, and everything that I was 
supposed to do I did (e.g. Check you are using the correct port 5986 for 
https, 5985 for http).

Your contniued help is appreciated.  This is a real hair puller!
