All the windows machines on the network get their dns set up by dhcp from this server, but they still can not resolve entries in hosts.
No, they wont. Ever. The hosts file is private to the machine having it.
Define it in bind files instead.

Yes, but WHERE is this defined in bind, Carlos.
Not being a bind wizard, I was asking specifically how I might add a name such as "securitycam" to bind so that windows users can just key that into their web browser without having to know the IP of said camera.
Perfect opportunity for you to buy the O'Reilly BIND & DNS book and set up dns services on linux for your lan. You won't regret the experience.
