[MSSQL7] Backup on network drive

Hi there,
Does anyone know if it's possible to perform a MSSQL7 database backup on a network drive instead of the local drives ?
...and if yes, how to proceed ?
It seems to be possible under MSSQL2000.
Many thanks for your help in advance,

It is not a true:

backup DATABASE database
to disk ='\\networkserver\BACKUP\database.bak'|||hu interresting, gonna have a try with this !! thanks !! :)

is there no read/write error risks ? I mean, if we exclude the network transmission problems, of course.|||Originally posted by mattoo

If someone cuts a network cable it should be a problem but no more.|||Fine. Many thanks again for your help ;)
