dns [summary]
Solved. The summary:
> There is a dnsutils package in Debian. Is contains some utilities.
> Is it a Debian-specific software?
No, dnsutils is part of bind9, which is not Debian-specific. Then again,
it's not responsible for the system DNS resolver either - that's part of
libc6.

I meant /etc/ppp/resolv.conf. It is generated by pppd (?).
I forgot /etc/resolv.conf, so
cd /etc/ppp
cp resolv.conf ..
was the solution of my problem, thanks to everybody.
Some of my configuration files:
**********************/etc/host.conf*********************
order hosts, bind
multi on

**********************/etc/resolv.conf*******************
