I would like to use SQL over some secure transport link as RPC
protocol. It seems it would be simpler to use for client in our setup
compared with SOAP or even XML-RPC implementation.

Typically clients read internal databases to submit data and it is
much simpler to copy the data to some remote table available through
ODBC and query the table later to get the results then to prepare
proper SOAP etc. requests.

Are there any problems with such setup?

I don't recall RPC being a secure protocol. If that's a requirement,
I'd say you may need to look elsewhere.

HTH.
