calling mssql on a remote server

Question

my remote server ip:62.128.xxx.xxx mssql server name :"MyDB"

and i could connect to the data while on the machine with

servername: MyDB Username: username Password: password

what would the address to connect to the server remotely be. I've tried

62.128.xxx.xxx/MyDB. This doesn''t work.

Do i need to add any port or something

Can you please give some more specifics like the OS of the server and client and what you are using to "connect"? Then maybe you can get a good answer.

"62.128.xxx.xxx"
