I have exactly the same issue

It works for me for the current release 2.4.0. Maybe try first to disable SSL in Barrier Settings.

It looks like Barrier is being superseded by input-leap. The readme says that it's not quite ready though.

Especially after upgrading macOS to Ventura, Barrier's performance has been terrible, with the mouse cursor getting stuck and stuttering.
input-leap is a sub-alpha project that doesn't even have binaries, so there are no expectations and no future.
We would like to present an alternative to users who are currently in despair over Barrier's lack of support for the latest OS and its unresolved problems.
The best way to do this is to use a free binary version of Synergy available somewhere.
If that's the case, then Barrier's fatal bugs have almost been resolved, so I recommend it because you don't have to wait impatiently for input-leap, which might release a binary in 10 years.

I was able to get it up and running with a macOS Server and a windows client just fine. File drag-and-drop did not work though. Clipboard worked fine.
