You can accomplish this by opening tcp port 1433 on your firewall (or
whatever port you assigned to sql server). If your clients connect to sql
server using integrated authentication, they'd have to login to the windows
domain first. However, this is not recommeded for security reasons. If you
definitely need to do this, at least change the default tcp port used by sql
server.
