are you using windows or sql auth? are the machines part of a domain? if so windows auth should work fine. I'm not sure if remote connections with windows auth works in a workgroup.

sql auth should work either way, whether you have a domain or just a workgroup.

have you created logins/roles on the remote server for the nt account you are trying to connect as?

it sounds to me like you are connecting with a windows account that does not have perms to the server/database.

does that login have a user or role associated with it in the database you are connecting to? has it been granted database access?

the kb article here may help you, see the "workaround" section, third bullet point: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/889615
