I enabled file sharing on the win98 box and shared a folder to test, i
had the same thought you did.
The win98 client is configured to use 'dns for wins resolution',
although I have done nothing yet with dns on the router box, it runs
bind; I don't know if that is even relevant to be honest.
I added the client entry into win2k's lmhosts.sam and ran nbtstat- R,
still can't browse the client from the server even with \\192.168.2.2\
Also added the rules mentioned to dnat broadcasts originating on both
subnets to the other one.
Here's something new, a tcpdump on the client (192.168.2.2) while trying
to access it through the win2k server (192.168.1.3):
17:28:12.327623 192.168.2.2.microsoft-ds > 192.168.1.3.1079: R [tcp sum

I'm breaking my head over this..
