Remote database connection through internet still not working

I am trying to have a ADO OLEDB connection by the UDL tool. However, it
still reports that there is no SQL server or no permission to access the
server. How can I test whether there was no contact at all or was it a
permission issue ?
I also use a forward URL which is routed by the DNS to the server IP adress.
Could that be the problem ? I enforced not to use the internet IP adress
because the router establishes a LAN connecion (both server and client
resides on same LAN) and doesn't connect through the internet as I figured
out.
Which steps should i perform in the right sequence in order to find the
problem ?
regards,
OscarHi,
I have the same problem but I just want to connect the SQL Server database
in my Windows2003 Server std webserver on my local entreprise manager...
No firewall between the two machines...
Thanks
