    1. Make sure your sql server/agent is running under a domain account with access to the network share.

    2. create a scheduled job as sa or equivalent with the following transact sql step

    backup database yourdb to disk='\\yourserver\yourshare\yourdb.bak' with init

    3. schedule it to run every night.
