i am using the following command

psexec \\192.168.108.129 -u user -p password nc.exe

it is a windows 8.1 system (both machines)

Is Remote desktop enabled on that computer?

i enabled remote desktop ( it was off) and it still denies me
I am not familiar with W8.
Can you open \\192.168.108.129\c$ in Windows Explorer?

I don't think remote desktop requires reboot, but worth a try.

I agree with McKnife here. There is no relation between Remote Desktop and Psexec.
Can you please make sure that you can access the remote computer on TCP port 445.
And fyi: enabling remote desktop does not require a reboot.
McKnife is right.

"PsExec works on remote systems only if it runs within an account that has administrator group membership on the remote system."
