On your distrib make sure you have the mount.cifs package installed, then create a CRON job to mount the remote Windows share on your linux box and rsync the data to it, before finally unmounting the Windows share:
:mount the remote Windows share first, using a windows user with full read/right rights
/sbin/mount.cifs //windows_server/windows_volume /windows_share -o user=somewindowsuser,password=cheese,dom=awindowsdomain
:rsync a local linux folder to the windows share - this is ubuntu so I had to use sudo
sudo rsync -a -v -z //mylocallinuxfoldertobackup/ /windows_share/LinuxBackup/
:unmount the windows share
/sbin/umount.cifs /windows_server
