How can i successfully connect to a remote server (SQL Server 2005). 

I created a system DSN connection and i am using the same.  My bean looks like this

<bean id="dbDataSource"
      class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource"
      destroy-method="close">
    <property name="driverClassName" value="sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"/>
    <property name="url" value="jdbc:odbc:FWDCRMOEP;databaseName=SFDCSTGCRM;selectMethod=cursor;"/>
    <property name="username" value="my_sql_username"/>
    <property name="password" value="my_sql_password"/>
</bean>

 ... and my error looks like this
