It would appear that the server I am working from is blocking my connection. I am trying to connect to my sql server from work. I can connect at home, no problem. However, from work I get a server does not exist or access denied.

I also can't update my site via ftp from my work. I am sure there is an obvious explanation. Is there any way to avoid this or is it some sort of server lockdown situation?

You may want to talk to your network admin at work.

Unfortunately, I don't have a chance to speak with the city's administrator. As well as there being a cultural barrier. I don't speak Japanese. I was just kinda of looking for some general information about my situation. I just want to know if my description of the situation is a possiblity. I mean, I don't want to try something that is not possible. If it is a security issue, I can't see the city opening up a security hole just to make it easier for me. I am not too educated in this area.

Sounds like there is a firewall at your work.
