Batch program to delete a folder

I'm trying to automate a little backup process of a folder from the computer to a network-drive. I found the code below to delete the folder on the network drive but I can't get it working because it says "Unable to find the specified file" for each files that it tries to remove. Why?

rd /s /q "\\MY SERVER\mysharename\myfolder"

Maybe there is a problem with concepts. It is not "\\server\folder", but "\\server\shareName". And you can not remove the share with a rd command.
