The DNS Server should be able to resolve the names anyway, but the DNS
server does not append suffixes, that is the responsibility of the DNS
Client if it needs to resolve non-FQDNs.
That said, if you are having to manually add the DNS suffix search list,
there is a better way, using Group Policies.
