I am slightly puzzled. Why do you want to connect remotely from a web application? Is the database on a different server to the website?

Regardless, have you forwarded the appropriate port in your router configuration?

yes web site is host at another web server and databases are on different web server... and i have all their static ips
i wana also register these databse in SQL SERVER 2000 ENTERPRISE MANAGER.

SQL 2000 by default uses port 1433 - have you permitted that port through your router?
