If I understand what you're trying to do, I believe you need to enable
WINS server support in Samba, and then using dhcp pass the wins address
to every client.

Here is the relevant part of dhcpd.conf:

option netbios-name-servers x.x.x.x;

After that, all windows computers will register themselves with wins
(you can have samba servers register with wins too) and nebios will
resolve them on every machine regardless of subnet.
