Hi !!
I'm looking for connection strings and related procedures that allow access
data located on a remote server.

Thanks

Luis

Hi Luis,
I am doing it all the time using the internal IP address.
I understand you are connected via VPN to another network which has SQL
server installed on one of the computers. Use the LAN IP address of the
SQL server in a regular connection string. I prefer using names so I
placed the IP address in <system>/drivers/etc/hosts.
Regards,
Reuven Nisser

Hi Lois,
For me it's:
