Hello.

 I have trouble with DNS-lookup.
 Then I ping any host by name, the DNS-name was resolving, and ping
 is working. But if I want to connect to remote host by name, almost
 all program reply to me: "ftp: alex.kmv.ru: Non-recoverable failure
 in name resolution". And after it, I see in messages new message:
 "217.13.212.70 failed: host is not on local network". 217.13.212.70
 - our DNS-server, but my ip is 212.96.114.132. What can I do to make
 my system working ?
 

Hello,

The error message sounds like you are not in the ACL to access the 
nameserver at 217.13.212.70 or a tcp wrapper in hosts.allow.

You are using 'host' and 'dig' to lookup the IP's?
