Thanks Igor,

Now, as you said after using quotes and extra shashs
for I am able to get correct command on the system,
but now I am getting another error :

System Error 1223 has occured. 
The operation was canceled by user

The share I am trying to access is a public share and
I do not require a password to access it.

When I checked Application event logs I get :

The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( rshd )
cannot be found. The local computer may not have the
necessary registry information or message DLL files to
display messages from a remote computer. You may be
able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this
description; see Help and Support for details. The
following information is part of the event: rshd: PID
2600: root@nws-bur-121-205 as Administrator: cmd='net
use z: \\\\10.8.121.42\\myshare'.

Thanks 
Jaimin
