Solution 1

In theory, it's just a case of getting the connection string right - which is pretty trivial if you know the IP / URL, server name, and have appropriate user credentials.

In the real world, it's unlikely to be a success. The problem is that most database servers are configured to disallow remote access for security reasons (like you don't want your competitors to have access to your company data for example).

So start by talking to your DB administrator, and ask if it's possible. If it is, he will be able to give you all the info you need.

So ask him what connection string you need and try it!
Provided your corporate firewalls don't get in the way, it should all just work. (And if the DBA allows remote access then he should already have checked the firewalls when he set it up).
