Client: macos 10.12.3

Steps to reproduce bug

Open server, open clients, they can't connect:

Other info

• When did the problem start to occur?
  A couple of version ago, maybe after 1.8.6

  Not that I know of yet (I've read on some issue that it was possible to disable SSL?)
• Does this bug prevent you from using Synergy entirely?
  Yes

I have the same or a similar problem with a Linux client and a Mac Server.

Same issue here, using a mac server and a linux client. Work around is to disable ssl (on the server (mac) > menu Synergy / Preferences / Network security > untick Use SSL)
but it's not ideal as unsecure...
