Restore database backup over the network

Question

How do you restore a database backup using SQL Server 2005 over the network? I recall doing this before but there was something odd about the way you had to do it.

Answer 1

I've had to do this a few times, and there are only two options that I know of. Copy the file locally to the SQL Server, or on the SQL server create a mapped network drive to the share that contains the backup file.
