More than likely what is going on is this:

1. The machine you are seeing a "timeout" on, has a correct routing table.
It sends the ping to the destination, but the destination doesn't know how
to get back to the original source.  Thus a "timeout".

2. The machine you are seeing nothing on, does not have a correct route to
the other machine.

Both machines need the 192.168.127.0 route to work properly.  Do a netstat
-rn on BOTH machines, and post it here if you like..........that is what's
needed.
