   It will work remotely with an SQL user.  The path supplied   
   to the backup statement is relative to the machine on which   
   MSSQL instance is running.  You are not required to make it   
   available to the machine whence you invoke `sqlcmd', but it   
   may be useful in order to save connecting to the Windows   
   machine to get the backup files. I have used Samba to mount   
   a Windows share on a Linux machine for two-way interaction.
