This isn't really anything to do with Perl. The command shell is telling you that the drive letter Z is not mapped (presumably you expected it to be mapped to a remote device). Add the command "net use" to your list the current mappings to confirm. Also, shouldn't that be "Z:\\bin\\perl.exe", i.e. back slashes.
