There is problem to connect ports on Windows box and Linux box. Is it possible? may be in future versions?

Yes, we plan to add such feature in the next versions but that will be Linux server side of Network Serial Port Kit only.

Hi there - was there ever any progress on this? My customer needs this for their product. It appears that you use a proprietary protocol on the socket - is there a way to connect to a raw socket with no handshake/protocol? I have that working on the Linux side. Alternatively is there a way to get the protocol details?

Thanks,

Brad.

Dear Brad,
What if you try to use our alternative solution: Serial Port Redirector.
It creates virtual COM port on Windows side and allows to redirect all traffic to specified IP address/TCP port.
Raw TCP protocol is used as transport (also Telnet RFC2217 COM port control protocol is supported).

Thanks.
