Did you try adding your domain-name after the hostname? If that works, then
you might have to add (probably uncomment) a line in the dnsmasq.conf file
to auto-append it.
I think you can do that on a windows client as well by setting the dns
search order ("Append these suffixes...") in TCP settings.
Maybe that helps.
