title: Accessing SQL Server Without Logging into VPN
body: <p>We have a web application that runs on Windows Server 2008 that needs to access a SQL Server database on that server. How we normally connect up to the SQL Server is by logging into the VPN. How would I go about opening port 1433 as a pass-through. This way, my web application can connect up to SQL Server without  being logged on to the VPN.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance,
