Cannot propogate to subscriber -- sql server replication

sql server replication : Cannot propogate to subscriber

I'm getting this error when I try to replicate

The schema script
'\\CVTDEESQL005\ETMSData\unc\CVTDEESQL005_ZenithSQL_L_060104_ZenithSQL_L_060104\20070120231902\tblCall_1.sch'
could not be propagated to the subscriber. The step failed.

I can find this row in sysMergeSchemaChange but I'm not sure why it's
causing a problem. Can someone give me some guidance?

53 is a network error, so I quess either the file is not there or I've lost
access to the directory. If I were to remove this line from
sysMergeSchemeChange would that sort it? Or be a very bad idea?

The row in question is the second one after exec.sp_MsChange_Retention etc.

I'd do some logging and see if this records more info
(http://support.microsoft.com/?id=312292).

I'd run the snapshot once again. Perhaps there are also other files that
went missing, and if there's an underlying problem it'd be best to sort it
out systematically.

I've tried to run the snapshot agent but it fails with "The Agent is
suspect. No response after 30 minutes. I'm using pull subscription. I need
to get access to the server via PCAnywhere to verify that the file/path is
acessible by the SQLAgent account but that may take some time. So I'll get
back to you.
all the best

OK - if it is reproducible, then let's look a little deeper. After the
snapshot agent runs, does the file exist? Does the account that sql server
agent runs under (are you using push or pull?) have access to the repldata
share? Is there enough space on the subscriber?
