Unable to connect to SQL named instance using alias name

$

Hi

I have installed Two named instances of SQL Server 2008 Standar Edition X64 SP1 on Windows server 2008 Standard edition X64 with SP2

I created two Aliases using Configuration Manager pointing to both these named instances. Aliases were created without any issues

Now when I try to connect to the instances using alias name I am getting the following error

"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)"

Help Regarding this is much appreciated
