Steve,
It wasn't the firewall we were talking about here, but rather SecuRemote.
The problem with trying to resolve "hostname" instead of
"hostname.domain.com" is the the client system will automatically append
the suffix lists to name service requests. That is what (I believe) he
meant when he said this was not a firewall issue. Technically it is a
problem with the VPN client software.
