Any other information

I have tried every combination of versions from 2.3.3-2.4.0

MacOS sometimes works as a server with the Windows machine as a client, however I could not get this configuration to work a few months ago

My Windows server has 2 IP addresses 26.228.234.234 and 192.168.1.196 which is highlighted in bold, the first address does not even allow the Macbook to show up on the interactive configuration and doesn't work with manual configuration either

also things to consider, Windows is connected over ethernet, barrier used to work in this configuration when using wifi over an extension box

I remember downloading a Barrier dmg file from another issue request and that worked originally, however I cannot find that thread anymore.

I got it working, going to close this issue now

if anyone is coming from google, I fixed this issue by changing the port by 1 in settings, then entered a random ip address in the address box below the port select (10.0.0.14) on the server machine, tried to run the server then removed the port. I got a popup asking if I allow this ssl certificate on both devices and pressed yes.
