if you can't ping debian.org, it's a dns problem. try to do a whois--that should fail as well. if your conf files are all in order, then your dnsutils must be screwed somehow. try dpkg --configure dnsutils, and post the error returns you're getting for any failed attempts at whatever you try. make it easier for people to be helpful.
