Use a DSN connection for connecting to the database.

Now configure the DSN connection for connecting to the database of your choice.

The advantage of this procedure is that you and your application needn't have to take care of the hassles for connecting to databases across networks as it will be taken care by the OS itself.



The DSN will guide through the steps for connecting to the database location.



Hope it has solved your problem...
