Barrier: UFW firewall enabled--barrier stopped working

Operating Systems

I'm using Ubuntu 18.10 and ferenOS (bionic beaver)

Barrier Version

2.2.0

Steps to reproduce bug

I activated the UFW firewall and allowed port 22 for ssh. Barrier now fails to communicate across my four laptops. When UFW is disabled, Barrier is back in business. How do I keep firewall and Barrier operating at the same time?

Cheers

That did the trick.

Did you open the port barrier/synergy use? (Port 24800)

root@tosh-ubuntu:/# ufw allow 24800

root@tosh-ubuntu:/# ufw status
