Some Users can't access DB thru Web

| Hi Everyone,
I have an issue where some computers on the same network can't access my
ASP pages which retrieves information from a MS SQL database. If someone
blocks port 1433 the default for MS SQL database port, would this
prevent users from accessing the resources they need?
If anyone's run into a similar problem before, please advise me on how I
can resolve this. I think its a firewall issue, but the clients are
saying they don't have a firewall.
Thanks!!!

| You mean the web browsers connect to the web server which in turn connects to SQL Server?
Then the clients shouldn't need access to port 1433 on the SQL Server, only the web server
should. I would look at the problem from the web client - web server perspective.
Unless the web app somehow is written so that it executes code on the client machine and that
code accesses SQL Server. You'd have to ask the web app developers that.
