Tunneling proxy on VS 2008.

Question

Is there a way to tunnel a proxy to access a remote sql server database on visual studio 2008? I'm working in a project at college that uses a sql server database but the access is restricted to the internal network. I'd like to access the database from my home too. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You can setup a VPN easily...

Take a look to Hamachi and Rebombo, very easy 0 configuration vpn...

Answer 2

If the colledge has VPN set up, you can set up the VPN on your computer to access the database from home.

Answer 3

In the event VPN access is not granted and the highly unlikely event that the SQL Server is exposed through the firewall, could you not get a copy of (or subset of) the database for development on local machine?

Answer 4

You can try this vpn service,it works really well
