+Hi.. can u try the following steps: 
+
+1. make sure that port 1434 is not blocked on the server.. mono, needs
+the udp port 1434 to connect to the named instances .. Try connecting
+after opening up 1434.. it shud work.. 
+
+2. If the above step doesnt work, try passing the port number ,at
+which the instance is listening, in the connection string..
+Ex : "server=<host>,<port>;.."
+
+pls, let me know the results..
+
