To Remotely connect a SQL Database through Internet

I want to connect to a remote computer though internet to connect a SQL Server da开发者_如何学编程tabase. I tried using Teamviewer successfully. Is there any other free tool which can be used in lieu of Teamviewer ?

There are are a few options.

1) Setup up VNC (there are a lot of free VNC implementations). If you set it up, I would recommend setting it up using SSH or some form of encryption so you are secure.
2) Set up a remote vpn connection. If the remote router supports something like DDWRT you can install that and set up you can vpn in to the remote network and access the machine as if you were there locally.
3) Set up port forwarding on the remote router so that when you connect to a specific port (default for SQL server is 1433) it forwards your request to the remote machine and then you just connect to the external IP of the remote router.
4) Set up port forwarding for Windows remote desktop. Basically the same as #3 except a different port and you'd use RDP to connect to the machine first instead of SQL server.

You can use MySQL Workbench tool for this purpose .. it's really simple ...

Just configure a new connection with the tool and you get to access the database remotely...

Just connect directly using SQL Server authentication

Update: or use trusted connection through VPN (IPSec).
If this question involves connection to SQL Server through internet. If not, then it is not development question and does not belong to SO.
