odbc-connect across domain help

[PHPnoob13]

My first post.

Sorry for not using the right terminology, i'm not very good at this...as you will see

 

Situation:

access database on server1 with IIS+PHP. odbc connection MsAcess driver.

PHP connects fine and reads database. I use no hostname, just the database name as named in the odbc-configuration on server.

( $conn=odbc_connect('Data','',''); )

 

However, on server2 (connection across internet), i have also the same odbc-setup (IIS+msaccess odbc driver).

How do i connect to this odbc?

I tried it using a url in my local setup, but even that doesn't work:

$conn=odbc_connect('www.localhost.com:Data','','');

 

probably i'm talking bs, but i hope you understand what i mean :)

Both servers w2Kserverprof

 

Thank you very very much.
