I just installed this tool under CentOS 8 using dnf install. The program has installed correctly, I've allowed 3702 and 5357 on the server firewall but no windows 10 computers can see it...

Ok it appears that you radomly need to go to the Cockpit panel, then reach Services, locate the wsdd service and restart it. Reliable way to bug the service: reboot any Windows machine and the server will cease to broadcast. 2nd reliable way to bug the service: refresh under Windows Explorer, after the server is gone forever until your systemctl restart

EDIT2: I found a way to fix the problem: Disable forever the firewall under CentOS 8. Unftunatly this is far from being ideal.

EDIT3: I fixed the problem finally. I think your documentation is wrong: the firewall entry for CentOS should actually be: TCP 3702, 5357 | UDP 3702, 5357
