You didn't really provide enough details to be sure, but if the client
is a Unix/Linux-type look at /etc/resolv.conf, in particular lines
like:

   domain com
or
   search ... com ...

and
   options ndots:N

where N is some number.  Doing "man resolv.conf" should be of some
assistance in determining what you really want there.

If it is a Windows machine, there is probably some similar control panel.
