Your DNS isn't configured correctly. Find what DNS Servers your Windows machine is using and plug them into your DNS Stuff in YaST. Are you getting an IP via DHCP? If so what type of DHCP Server? Sounds like your root level DNS Suffix should be pushed out via DHCP Server.. Have fun.. Glad you got it working.. Using IP's is ugly.
