Thank you everyone for you assistance, Mark's xinet clue turned out to be what I needed. Xinet is not installed by default on Ubuntu 14.04, so I had to install it and make some configuration changes and reboot the server. After that I have remote connection to the database as needed.
Thank you again everyone!
