bq. It should be noted that the share name contains a space
Just in case: Did you already try "file://///SERVERNAME/PATH TO FOLDER" as the URL, i.e. with unescaped spaces? I know that's not RFC-compliant but as far as I can tell the [{{FileWagon}}|http://maven.apache.org/wagon/wagon-providers/wagon-file/xref/org/apache/maven/wagon/providers/file/FileWagon.html#100] is currently not paying too much attention towards URL decoding/encoding when switching from File to URL and vice-versa.

> Key: MSITE-318
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-318
> Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: site:deploy
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-6
> Environment: Windows XP
> Reporter: Josh Peters
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently under windows, a UNC path (even one represented as a file:// URL) cannot be written to. There seems to be something in the guts of Ant and Maven that doesn't understand how to treat UNC paths as valid paths.
> In an effort to avoid the "wontfix" status: mapping the UNC path as a network drive is effective but terribly kludgey as a long-term solution. Different developers in an organization _may_ have drives already mapped to something else. Given a vanilla Windows network, UNC paths may be the best choice for deploying sites.
> Leaving this as a minor bug since it mainly affects internal projects of an organization, but it is an important one as it can keep folks from adopting Maven for use in corporate environments.
