Maybe the 192.168.2.3 is taking precedence over the names - try this:
<VirtualHost name1.siteone.com >
ServerName name1.siteone.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/siteone
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost name2.sitetwo.com >
ServerName name2.sitetwo.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/sitetwo
</VirtualHost>
name1.siteone.com and name2.sitetwo.com have to be resolvable by DNS to
192.168.2.3
