That's the first time I hear about a Windows system where CMD.EXE doesn't
support UNCs. Are you sure that file name is indeed a UNC, i.e. that it
refers to some remote filesystem?
Anyway, a stab in the dark: try using forward slashes, like this:
"//linux/linux/var/oldwww/html/basic"
(the double quotes around the file name might or might not be important).
