I have just upgraded to ubuntu 21.04 and when trying to access my ubuntu machine from my windows machine I get the error "Server already has a connected client with the name.....". Before the upgrade everything was running smoothly with barrier. Can you help ?
I tried reinstalling barrier in the window and the ubuntu machine but the problem remains.

I just switched the client from Wayland to GNOME on Xorg and it started working again.
