Error when implementing a witness sql 2008 server

Hei!
   i have a mirroring Database, i am trying to implement an witness server.

I get the following error.
The ALTER DATABASE command could not be sent to the remote server instance.
Verify the server is connected, and try again (Mircrosoft SQL Server, ERROR:1456)

I have checked the Witness server is online and can ping it from the current server.
