JDBC past a firewall - HELP!?

Problem:

I want to connect to a database on a server inside a firewall. How can this be done? We usually connect to development servers inside the wall by connecting to the firewall, and then telnetting and using a terminal emulator. This is a new problem though, and it's urgent. Can anyone suggest some possible solutions?

It depends on what database you are using and what network connection your JDBC driver uses to connect to the database. It is probably using some protocol on TCP/IP. You need to configure the firewall to let it pass network traffic on the TCP/IP port(s) that the JDBC driver uses to talk to the database.
