Thanks Richard and Richard - Tried to post last night by my home mail server is blocked as a spammer for some reason (a bad spammer *is* on my subnet somewhere...) I had a long think about what was different between the working installs and non-working installs and realized the one that wasn't working had a "." in the name due to our naming convention. I tried substituting a "-" for the "." and it worked like a charm. :-) Thanks for the help folks. I'll file a bug report - the installer should at least prevent you from using periods in instance names.
