Remotely Connect to Sql Server

Hi
i am trying to registering the remote sql server (MMC Sql EnterPrise
Manager) which is outside our Network . i.e the machine is located at ISP.
it is giving me error SQL server does not exist or access denied.
i am specifying the IP address of remote machine to whom i want to access
remotely,
(SQL Server Properties ) under connection tab - (configuration done to
remote sql server)
i had selected the option of allowing other sql server to connect remotely
to this sql server using RPC
even i am not able register remote sql server in my local sql server.
Can anyone help me out what exactly we have to do for remote access of sql
server.
Thanks
MiteshCan you ping the SQL server?
Can you telnet to port 1433 from your side ?
Is there a firewall in between ?
Make sure you can connect on port 1433 otherwise it will not work , you
would then need to check whats blocking that port somewhere!

is due to internet provider had stopped ping )
yes i am able to do telnet to port 1433 after passing the telnet command at
port 1433. the telnet window shows connecting... and then telnet screen
becomes blank (might it been connected and waiting for commands )
remote server is located in data center then firewall will be there
............
Thanks

have the proper NAT settings in the Firewall in both ends. It could also be
the settings for your VPN connection (if that's what your using ) that needs
to be checked.
