Vagrant mkdir / -force Error

I'm fairly new to using Vagrant, I'm trying to use to bring up a Windows VM on an OSX host.

My vagrant file is,

config.vm.define "jenkins_slave" do |slave|

    slave.vm.box = "windows-2012-r2-puppet"
    slave.vm.box_check_update = false;

    slave.vm.hostname = "jenkins-slave"
    slave.vm.network :private_network, ip: "192.168.10.11"

    slave.vm.communicator = "winrm"
end

However I'm getting an error when Vagrant tries to set some proxy configuration values,

==> jenkins_slave: Configuring proxy environment variables...
The following WinRM command responded with a non-zero exit status.
Vagrant assumes that this means the command failed!


mkdir / -force
if ($?) { exit 0 } else { if($LASTEXITCODE) { exit $LASTEXITCODE } else   { exit 1 } }


Stdout from the command:


Stderr from the command:

I'm not really sure where to start with this so any help anyone can give me would be great.

It seems like the answer was that Vagrant didn't know it was a windows box, I had to add the line,

slave.vm.guest = :windows
