    YOu can open a port to SQL Server via telnet, it questionable what you can do with telnet on the instance. You can also use any query tool to access the appropiate port on the SQL Server. If the Server is behind a firewall you will have to do a port fowarding, opening the firewall and redirecting the request to the sQl Server.

    Hi,

    ok I thought that you wanted to do this. If you want to query / modify the database, you probably don’t want to do this with telnet, rather than a query tool like the SSMS in SQL 2005 or Query ANalyzer in SQL 2000, or SQLCMD or OSQL at the commandline.

    Try to establish first a connection which is pingable from the two location, then do the port forwarding to the SQL Server computer. This is not a specific SQL Server related problem rather than a infrastructure problem.
