Hi,
Hope you have solved it in the meantime.
I do the same with a Checkpoint VPN connection over ADSL and this works well.
Will a straight (no VPN) connection work? (Use port 1433/1434). Be sure to
have this port open.
If this works, try to see if there is a portblocking vehickle at the other
side in the VPN router, if this is OK you really have a problem.
Besides, I was pleasantly surprised with the speed of the results working
over VPN.
I saw no degradation in performance with the direct connection.
Good luck,
