hi Mark,
outpot is same for ncat with port definition
ncat 192.168.127.254 4001
Ncat: Connection timed out.

this is the only Ethernet adapter which is connected to moxa in my machine, I left the second adapter disconnected when running ipconfig
Both the OS are running on same machine and I tried both the methods power of the moxa when disconnecting to Linux and do no power off)
yes I tried to connect web interface both in linux and windows. its connected in windows and timed out in linux.

You did not give the port 4001 in the ncat command. It must be
ncat 192.168.127.254 4001
> Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2:
> IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.128.1.35
That is the wrong Ethernet adapter, it is not the one on the same subnet as device (192.168.127.*). Send the information on the port connected to the Moxa.

You said that you can telnet to the Moxa from Windows. When you then try to telnet from Linux did you turn off the power to the Moxa before you tried to connect from Linux. Are the Linux and Windows computers actually the same computer with dual boot, or
is it 2 different computers?
Have you tried using the Web interface to the Moxa in both Windows and Linux?
How is the Moxa connected to the Windows and Linux machines? Direct connect, or through a switch?
Mark

Dear Mark,
I tried All five suggestions in your last mail
- When you boot Windows what it the IP address of the Windows machine on that subnet?
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
cat.ernet.in<http://cat.ernet.in><http://cat.ernet.in>
Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::f160:7b80:19a6:5bf2%11
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.128.1.35
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.128.0.254
Tunnel adapter Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface:
Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected
- If you telnet from Windows can you type a command to the device and get a reasonable response.
Yes I can cammand the device with telnet and can put/get Input/outpot and alter the device functions.
- When you switch to Linux do you power-cycle the Moxa? You should to make sure it has forgotten about the Windows machine
I cant properly understand what you mean by this sentences. Please elaborate it.
- Try running ncat from Linux to the Moxa rather than telnet. See if that will connect.
result is same as telnet
ncat 192.168.127.254
Ncat: Connection timed out.
- Have you tried the Linux IOC again? Perhaps some things we have done will have fixed it?
Yes I tried it continuously result is same.
I also disabled selinux prior it was permissive

There have now been lots of suggestions on tech-talk.
Here are some questions and things to try:
- When you boot Windows what it the IP address of the Windows machine on that subnet?
- If you telnet from Windows can you type a command to the device and get a reasonable response.
- When you switch to Linux do you power-cycle the Moxa? You should to make sure it has forgotten about the Windows machine
- Try running ncat from Linux to the Moxa rather than telnet. See if that will connect.
- Have you tried the Linux IOC again? Perhaps some things we have done will have fixed it?

But you are not using telnet to the correct port. The command should be
telnet 192.168.127.254 4001

It does seem like port 4001 is correct.
Can you send a screen shot showing the Moxa configuration screen with operating mode, etc.
