UDP broadcasting/multicasting problem

Hello ,
What I want is a server on my LAN to broadcast its address to all machines
on the LAN.
Using UDP broadcasting or multicasting I was hoping to send the server
information across the LAN so that interested clients can establish
connections.
However, all broadcasts and multicast sample code dont seem to work on my
LAN (which I have tested successfully on other networks).
The router may not be configured for UDP broadcasts.
Is there any other alternative for the server to broadcast this info to the
clients without a central server mechanism?
Certain applications are able to do on the same LAN and they "seem" to use
UDP connections. :-(
{windows Firewall is disabled}
thanks in advance
