Are you getting an "Access Denied" message, or are you getting a message stating that "...can't find Server/Database?"

Hi Moslem,

That is belongs to Authentication Issue only , Ones do cross check with your Manager .

They will rise the access for u

Hi,

Try to make sure your SQL server IP/host name and db login credentials working.

also do simple telnet ping from your end

C:\>telnet sqlserver_ip_address 1433

just change the Authentication type from SQL Server authentication instead of Windows

i believe need to select second option

"specific username and password"

When you say you are using VPN i believe you need to connect VPN and The remote is an another cluster with different nodes. So, I would ask you to test by yourself using that connection whether you can access DB or not (I meant to say privileges of account RDC)
