Thanks for making me feel better. I had just about come to that conclusion myself. It's good to get confirmation.
As a stupid question, can you give me an example of say putting my workstation's IP (10.1.0.111) into the hosts file of the server. I tried putting my server's address in - 10.1.10.3 localhost.localdomain localhost - which crashed mysql all together. I could use an example.

The rhn up2date won't help on an 8.0 system - there has apparently been no fix as yet for it on Psyche. Either you can upgrade mySQL to a later version, or you can downgrade glibc. Either way, it's a bit messy, and I'm surprised RH haven't fixed it yet. Since the problem is with the resolver (I think), you could try adding entries in /etc/hosts for the machines you wish to connect from (assuming your search order is hosts first. I HAVEN'T tested this, and I don't know if it works round it or not, but I think I saw it suggested as a temporary work-round on the web when I was looking into it. Worth a try?
