Absolutely, what you want is to use HTTP tunnelling. I use it going
through
a VPN as well and it works fine. You must have Analysis Services
Enterprise
Edition and install IIS on the server.

However, I've not been able to get this to work on a Windows 2003 box.

Given that MS Analysis Services does not support standard SQL Server
Authentication (thus requiring windows user accounts), is it possible
for a
remote client PC, connected to a network using a VPN, to be
authenticated on
an Analysis Server if it is not part of the host domain? If so, how can
this
be achieved?

Is there a way of using the anonymous login account?

If not, is this not a strange inconsistency with SQL server, and are
there
plans to address this with Yukon?

Many Thanks
