Brian, YOU ROCK!!! I downloaded and installed new copies (same version) of glib, glib10, glibc, glibc-devel, and glibc-profile. Now, it works. All network problems fixed. Just for future reference, made my CD from the University of Buffalo .iso image. Thank you to all who helped!

Try downloading a new copy of glibc and installing it. Just to make sure there is no corruption in the libs you have. The strace may also point out a problem with that. (you don't need to an updated glibc, just one from a different source then the one you installed from) Ping shouldn't die with a seg fault, regardless of what is going on. (dns lookup or not, good packets or not) So there is something else wrong. The last time I saw something similar was on RH 6.0 for Alpha, which was due to a problem with the glibc libraries(for alpha not i386). So you have probably got a hardware problem, some kind of file corruption or a very obscure bug (or something else I can't think of, hey I've been wrong plenty of times ;) ) I would bet on a hardware problem (probably not what you want to hear) but there is still much to check before condemning anything. I look forward to your feedback. Good luck.
