If you are using Windows security on the connection (rather than a SQL Server account) then that may be the problem as by default IIS configures a Application Pool identity that is generated and is unlikely to have rights to access your SQL Server (or any disk based resources).

I was not clear enough; the problem is loading the vfp dll, not the SQL connection.
