I did this a while back and I got it working by tunnelling via SSH (using putty on windows). But I can't remember the exact details off the top of my head. It may be worth googling that set-up. I seem to remember thinking it felt like a kludge and I can't quite remember why I ended up doing it, but I do remember that it worked.
