On the machine you want to run tests through, add it as a node to Hudson (we use java web start). The label you give it is how you'll identify the jobs it can service. Login to that node (eg remote desktop) and bring up the Hudson site in the browser on that machine. Find the node you created and hit the Launch button - that starts up the slave on that node and you should see a little dialog that you can minimize (you may need to install a JRE on the machine).
Now create a job for the script you want to run and set the 'Restrict where the job can be run' and add that label you defined for the node. Set up the source control so it can check out your latest test code and then configure how you're going to build it. You can use a windows command and call the script directly. I'd start with just getting what you have working (you don't need to use rake and you can always do that later). You can manually start the build to make sure it works for you and once you have things running you can edit the job and trigger it to run nightly, on source control triggers, etc. You might need to get user permissions to do some of this, depending on how your Hudson site is set up. Also there are quite a few plugins and you may have to install some, depending on what Hudson currently has configured. There are ones that will support different source control systems (git, svn, cvs), rake, etc. Hugh -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
