It's located at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CCM\LocationServices REG_SZ DnsSuffix
I set that as a preference in Group policy (yea don't help for workgroup machines) DCM could set that too.... If you had communication with the clients. Rick J.

May also require a ccmexec restart.

I am not trying to change the DNS suffix settings on the client's network settings. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg699356.aspx Duncan Russell From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brandon Linton Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2013 13:05 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] RE: Change DNSSUFFIX setting Give this a try.

I made the mistake of setting it on a group of "workgroup" machines that cannot access our AD. I tried to find this elusive setting in WMI, registry, SDK, etc. but no luck. I am thinking that a re-run the ccmsetup install may be my only option. Any ideas?
