The command you suggested only works if a share called
"George Lawshe" exists on \\Bettie. If no such share exists
then you have to create it while working on \\Bettie, by
right-clicking the folder you wish to share, then selecting
"Sharing".
I recommend against using embedded spaces in share
names.
Running the "net use" command is completely harmless.
It cannot do any damage.
