TFS turn local path into UNC path?

I am using the WinRM - IIS Web App Deployment task that can be downloaded from the Microsoft Marketplace. For the source location, I want to use

$(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)\**\*.zip

However, this translates to a local path where the build agent resides, but not a path on the target machine. I want to turn the local path into a UNC path by replacing the initial 'c:\' with '\servername\c$\'. Is this possible?

This article about release variables does not tell me anything about how to actually use the variables.

You need to push the binaries to the server first by using the Windows Machine File Copy task.
