Sorry looked at the original email and this seemed to be in it.
How are your firewall setting? Also I thought you would need to have it
this way :
interfaces = 192.168.2.2/24 192.168.3.1/24
Anyways this is more then I have done.

Did you put the WINS ipaddress in the windows client? if it don't no
where to get the info I have found it to get the info. There is a way to
put that in the DHCP Server setting, that is beyond me.
Also you can do a locate tdb files and do a tdbdump on the wins info.
Do you have user accounts, like any setup?
Also do you have "host allow = " and "host deny = " along with the
"interfaces =" setup correctly?
Some things to look at.

You can still go Start | Run \\ip.address to connect to a 'hidden'

I get a "network path not found" error. However, when I do the same
thing for each of the two subnets, I get invited to log in (my Samba
error, I think--I may have not yet put anything into my tdbsam. I'm
still trying to get the network itself to work.)
I can ping all by hostname, as well as by FQDN; although it appeared
that I could not ping sserver by hostname only until I added sserver
and its FQDN to the PC's host file (which it reads as though it were
an lmhosts file). I say "it appeared" because it looked like the
forward and reverse look up files for sserver appeared in the PC's
resolver cache before I made this addition, but I got too fast with a
ping test and contaminated that datum.
It sounds like "nmbd" isn't running, or more likely, it's only running
on one subnet. There are all sorts of issues using NetBIOS names
across different subnets, but Google will tell you all about that.
I do have only one instance of nmbd running, and two of smbd. How do
I get another nmbd instance to run?

If running \\samba.ip on a Windows box works, then this is definitely
the problem.
Additional data, from an error log I have named.conf generating,
keeping in mind that I have dynamic dns turned on. I'm getting
messages to the effect that my test1 dot biz dot hosts dot jnl file
(test1 dot biz dot hosts is the forward lookup file that, among other
things, defines the points of contact for my two subnets) cannot be
created due to a permission denied error. My test1 dot biz dot hosts
forward lookup table lives in /var/lib/named/master directory, with
permissions rw-r--r--, and it's owned by root:root. Further, even
though I have ddns running, this test1 dot biz dot hosts file remains
unchanged from the day I created it--not a thing has been added to
it. Should there have been by now, or am I exposing my ignorance
here? Further, my named and dhcpd are running in separate chroot
jails. Is this causing problems with updating this file--or any
other of my forward lookup files?
----
on most systems, named runs as user named and thus cannot make changes
to files owned by root:root and cannot create journal files in folders
unless owned by named:named and chmod 775
----
Finally, what do the error messages mean, and what do I need to do to
correct that?
----
probably follow some of the best documentation available and resist the
temptation to shortcut it.
