Have you done a : a) ping test b) telnet test c) are the services started d)can you connect from the server where the SQL Server is based?

as jack said.

does it work localy?
If yes check Firewall issues using from the remote location ping on the ip and telnet on the port.

Is it a namded instance? If yes make sure that the sql server browser is running and the port for it is also open.
