By definition of this address (10.x.y.z) is not routed. Hence this 
connection only works if your local machine is in the same subnet (also 
10.x.y.z) and they can ping each other.

If you are remote, the routing runs over one or more routers, you most 
likely need to setup a route, like a nat-route or something.

For what its worth, the 10.x.y.z address range is the A-class 
free-range. There are more free-ranges, see 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network (or 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address) for details.
