[rabbitmq-discuss] can't connect to node already running as a windows service

[Rader]

RabbitMQ is installed as a windows service using the default settings. I 
can manage it through the web admin console, but can't connect to it 
through the command line. If I type "rabbitmqctl status", I will get this 
message:

Status of node 'rabbit at EPEKW-Q1100054' ...
