title: Connecting to external database in ASP.NET C#
body: <p>I don't know whether this should be here or stack exchange. Seems like stack exchange is more for theoretical discussion so I am starting here.
  I want to create a connection string in the web.config file for queries to a database residing at another domain. I can't seem to find a good article for what to put in the connection string, and how to set up the responding database and it's security so that it will accept the connection with the proper credentials passed and execute and return the query. Does anybody know of a good article for this? Thanks.</p>
