GPO: Scheduled task to defrag servers

Hello,
I am using this small script to automatically created scheduled tasks
via Group Policy on each one of our servers:

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Dim fso, d, dc, i, Command
i=0
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set dc = fso.Drives
For Each d in dc
i=i+1
If d.DriveType = 2 Then
Return = WshShell.Run("echo ""N""|schtasks.exe /create /SC WEEKLY /D
MON /TN Defrag" &i& " /TR ""defrag.exe "&d &" -f"" /ST 15:50:00 /SD
04/08/2008 /RU SYSTEM", 1, TRUE)
End If
Next
Set WshShell = Nothing

The echo ""N"" is necessary because on the second restart, Windows
asks to overwrite the scheduled task. If I omit this, the GPO works
fine the first time, but the after the second reboot, it prompts to
overwrite the task, so I manually have to confirm.....


When I run the script now with the echo ""N""|, I get an error "The
system cannot find the file specified".

My question is now, what's wrong with the "Wshshell.run"-command or is
there any possibility like a "/N" to confirm that I do not want to
overwrite the scheduled task....
