Newbie problem: can't reach an ftp site



I recently loaded Linux onto my PC (Pentium II) and configured PPP
correctly.  I am able to connect to my ISP successfully, but I cannot reach
any ftp site (e.g. ftp.us.debian.org).  The error message I receive is
'Unable to locate host'.  I know the site exists because I can reach it via
ftp from another UNIX machine.  Is there some setting I must tweak?

Any help greatly appreciated.
