Hey Simon-
Can you just share GeoSkills Intermediate as something on it's own?... or
change it to \\canterbury01\GeoSkills\GeoSkillsIntermediate (no space)?
I'm thinking that the DOS command is looking at it as a separate argument,
like it would be expecting a switch to come after GeoSkills (like
/persistent:y).
Let us know how that goes, if you can try it out
