Have you tried disabling SSL? If not, go to your Barrier settings on both computers, uncheck 'Enable SSL' and try again.

Note that I'm not a Barrier developer, I just know that SSL does not work on my computers.

Check logs and add client hostname to server config as new alias also check firewall settings ,it can block connection between client and server.

Disable SSL won't be the ultimate solution as your input will be trasnfered as clear text within network. Use this to generate SSL cert and copy Barrier.pem over to Windows.

In your pi:

cd ~/.local/share/barrier/SSL
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -subj /CN=Barrier -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout Barrier.pem -out Barrier.pem

To windows
C:\Users\<YOUR USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Barrier\SSL\Barrier.pem

Reload config to work
