SQL Server Backup for UNC path

I am using query to make sql server backup in my system. It is working fine when I gave full path (including drive letter) but when I use UNC path, it is not working. So tell me how to make it work for UNC path?

Try to create a "Backup device" connected to the UNC path. And do your backups on this device. It definitely works. So, backups to the UNC path works as well too, BUT - check the path's permissions for account under which sql server is running
