+Hi 
+
+I was able to reproduce the scenario for 2 conditions :
+1. if udp port 1434 is blocked by firewall
+2. if the port on which the instance is running is blocked
+
+since u r able to connect from windows , condition 2 does not seem
+likely.. so, can u check if port 1434 is open on ur sqlserver? if not,
+open the port and try again..
+
+Mono needs the port 1434 to be open to be able to connect to named
+instances.. let me know if opening the port solves ur problem.. 
+
+Regards
+Senga
