Unable to see DataSource in the Database Panel of Dreamweaver CS6

I'm working on Cold Fusion 8 which is located on local network(Ms Windows Server 2003 R2) on my work place. I am using Dreamweaver CS6 for creating "cfm" files and connected to the local server by creating a new site and mentioning local IP and all other details.My cold fusion files are running fine. I tested it.

I have another IP where MS Windows Server 2003 is installed and MySQL 5.5 is installed there.

What I'm trying to do ?

I'm trying to run some SQL queries using "cfquery" tag of cold fusion. For this I will need to see the list of "datasources" which are present in the "Adobe 8 Coldfusion Administrator". But I'm unale to figure it out how would I be able to see the list of all the data sources in the Database panel of Dreamweaver? I need to have this list otherwise I think I won't be able to retrieve data from the database and run SQL queries.

Please let me know if someone knows any way out.

Thanks

    You need to enable rds on your cf server and then connect to rds from dreamweaver.
