Oracle7 Networking Question

Configuration:
Oracle 7.3 NT (single instance) Installed and accessible from both the server it is installed on, as well as client machines through SQL*Net.

Question:
Is there a configuration option to allow CLIENT machines to access a database on another machine WITHOUT specifying the Host String in the logon? ie.. SCOTT/TIGER and not SCOTT/TIGER_at_SERVER

My default installation allows this when logging in while at the server machine, but not the clients. I figure it may have something to do with LISTERNER.ORA and/or TNSNAMES.ORA but this particular concept is subtly hidden in the manuals. Any help appreciated.
