    What is the connection string you are using and what is the exact error message you are getting?

    i resolved the problem. for any one who is thinking of the problem
    here is the solution

    1.<add name="ConnectionString2" connectionString="Data Source=tcp:<server name from your serviceprovider>;Initial Catalog=dbname;User ID=userid;Password=password />

    this helps u to connect to your remote server from localhost
