Jijo,
Under Control Panel/Data Sources/System DSN , you should be able to create a connection to your remotely hosted SQL database. I'm assuming they've given you an IP address or domain. You should be able to setup this IP or domain and test it there. I would get to this point first and address any remaining issues later. Also, make sure the required port is open in the firewall where the database will reside so you can access it.
