First things first:
1.) What sort of network are we trying to help you with? Is it couple PCs on a home network? Are you working within a company network with an existing DNS server, AD server, etc?
2.) Make sure all your PCs have unique IPs & hostnames/computernames and that every box can ping every other box by IP. Clean up any hosts file entries you may have made.
3.) There's a number of steps in correctly setting up a samba server. Have you read the HOWTOs at samba.org or looked at simple setup instructions like:

4.) Post your smb.conf file. It'll give us some clues as to what you're trying to do.
