After that, I can’t log in to my root account any more!!!!!!! And when I use one of the other accounts, I get ?segmentation faults all the time…
It sounds like somebody hacked your server, changed the root password, and replaced some of the binaries.
You might need to reboot into single-user mode and examine the system for evidence of hacking. CERT (http://www.cert.org/) has resources that might help you determine what happened.
If it's a new system, it's probably better to reinstall the OS (and toaster) than to try cleaning up after the hackers. Make sure you apply all updates to your system before going online. On the RedHat servers I build, I typically start off with it behind a firewall until I can turn off unneeded services and install all of the updated RPMs.
