Could the firewall on the PC running Softsqueeze be blocking receipt
and/or transmission of  broadcast packets ?

Can you get the firewall log and see if any packets are being blocked ?

You can turn on your server logging network.protocol to DEBUG and then
start Softsqueeze.

When Softsqueeze starts up - it broadcasts a Discovery message which
should appear in the Server log as follows:

Code:
--------------------

(199)  Discovered server minitower-linux (192.168.1.150), using port 9000
  
  
--------------------


If no Discovery message then PC which is running Softsqueeze is
blocking outgoing broadcast as I assume your server PC can receive
Discovery requests from your other players as you can see your SBS
server name on the player display (i.e. you did not enter address
manually).
