The same thing happens with these two FQDNs if I try them from here. They may be set not to respond to ping traffic. Try different addresses (try mine -- comarre.com = 63.198.182.124 -- if you like; it should respond to standard pings). >The DMZ is a Redhat box and is the only machine on that net.

You provided a lot of detail, in which I spot only one problem, the same one you spotted: >2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100 > link/ether 00:06:29:4f:2a:ee brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff > inet 192.168.1.10/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global eth0 > (This looks like a leftover from the last config. How do I get rid of >it? ) > inet 192.168.10.1/24 brd 192.168.10.255 scope global eth0 I don't know how to interpret this dual address for the eth0 interface, but if it really means that the kernel thinks eth0 has two different IP addresses, I bet it is the source of the problem (combined with a routing-table problem). I'm not a Red Hat specialist (I use Debian and LEAF), but I'd suggest using the "ifconfig" command to bring this eth0 interface down, then restart it with just the one, correct address. Then use the "route" command to do any needed tidying up to the routing table. Then see if it will ping. If it will, fix whatever init scripts you have that start up networking on this host. If that is not the source of the problem, then everything else looks OK ... assuming you are trying the ping to address 192.168.10.254, not some hostname that resolves to it. If the failure does happen when you ping by hostname, the box might be telling you it can't find a route to its nameserver (whatever that is -- does the RH box run named or use resolvers listed in /etc/resolv.conf ?).
