First you should make sure that the two PCs know eachother on the Ethernet, so ping one another and see if you get a reply (open the DOS prompt and ping <machine name> ).
If this works then you might have a problem with permissions, so - either you use a Domain account that has permissions in the SQL Server or you use SQL login (which is less secured).
Please let us know if you need more guidance.
