Connect to an SQL 2005 server through proxy

Ok, here is the situation...
I have created an Access Project application which connects to our SQL
Server.
SQL server is not behind a proxy, it listens to the default port
Most of our users are outside the LAN and thus they connect through the
internet.
One of our users works in a university environment which controls the
outbound connections through proxy.
I want this user to be able to connect to the SQL server through this
proxy (which i cant control ofcourse)
Is this possible? What settings are required in the proxy (no idea if
it is an MS proxy or not). Does the user has to change anything inside
the MS access connection dialog?
Plz help me on this
If it is not possible please provide some alternatives...
Thanks in advance
Noone knows anything about that? Plz help me on this
