Is there anything I need to change on our SQL Server 7.0 (on NT 4) here at work so that i can access it from home over a dialup? either using enterprise manager or the Visual InterDev tools, I get a "failed to connect" error. I am trying to connect using the IP address of the serve. I have tried creating a system DSN to the remote server, also i have created an alias in clinet network utility and use that, none of it will let me connect, which leads me to believe I need to change some settings on the server itself. I am trying to use the standard port 1433.
