Where are the names being resolved? /etc/hosts? NIS? DNS?

Local (on your LAN) or remote server?  You get a login prompt?

It sounds like you may have no network problem per se - you *may* just
need to set up your DNS servers properly.
This would explain how you can reach local machines but not remote ones.

What is in the file /etc/resolv.conf (if it exists)?  Can you use "host"
or something similar to look up hostnames?
