Hi,

I am looking to set up a DSC Script to download some files from a network share and unzip them to a location on the remote node.

I cannot get the script to work, I have granted the correct permissions to the share, the receiving node has Full Control to the share, here is my script

Configuration ScriptTest
{
    Import-DscResource -ModuleName 'PSDesiredStateConfiguration'

    Node Node1
    {
        Script ScriptExample

        {
            SetScript = {Expand-Archive -Path \\node0\reposhare\example.zip -DestinationPath c:\repos -Verbose}

            TestScript = { Do Nothing }
            GetScript = { Do Nothing }
        }
    }
}

ScriptTest -OutputPath C:\DSC

Start-DscConfiguration -Path C:\DSC -Verbose

I am running this from Node0 (control node as-well as where the share lies).

So basically, i want to run this script which then pulls the files across to the local machine and i cannot get it working!

Help please!
