SFC trouble on WinXP and Win2K

This is the second time I've seen this error. The first was on a Windows XP workstation and now it's on Windows 2000. Microsoft's Q296241 recommends something, but I have successfully run this twice.

Start .. Run .. type this and hit enter: "%SystemRoot%\System32\SFC /scannow"

(SFC doesn't work in Safe Mode .. FYI)

===   ===   ===   ===   ===   ===   ===   
Windows File Protection could not initiate a scan of 
protected system files.

The specific error code is 0x000006ba [The RPC server 
is unavailable.]
