That might work for a single company's site, but hosting companies can't do
that. You
have to give your clients some kind of remote access to manage their
databases. Are
there any techniques/suggestions for allowing remote access to SQL server
via the
internet? Obviously changing the port is one small step but are there
others people are
using?
