Bennett,

If you do the following nslookup:
nslookup host1
You are looking with nslookup with a relative hostname. nslookup will place
after the relative name the first domainname of the searchlist. This will be
fsproduce.com

nslookup is thus searching for:
host1.fsproduce.com

Relative names doesn't have a trailing dot.

When you want to use absolute hostnames, you have to write:
nslookup host1.training.fsproduce.com.
(watch the trailing dot)
