    Hi,

    If your client OS is 64-bit you have two cliconfg.exes, one is the 64-bit residing in \Windows\System32 folder and the other one is the 32-bit one in the \Windows\SysWOW64 folder.

    If you're running 64-bit OS and just run cliconfg.exe from the Start \ Run, it'll open up the 64-bit one. Try running the one from SysWOW64 folder and adding the alias there.
