Is there any way to get the next value of a sequence via a db_link.

I tried

select some_seq.nextval from dual_at_db_link

but it told me the sequence didn't exist. I went to the database where the sequence exists and, using the userid that is in the db_link, I was able to get the next value, so it isn't a permissions problem. Do I have the wrong syntax or is it just not possible?

TIA
