If we have to rebuild the whole server, I will try to get them to use Centos instead. They got the Sybase version for RHEL 4. It should work with Centos 4.x as well, correct? Thanks!

Take root access away from the DBA. For getting the system back up, if your DBA left the working kernel on disk you should be able to tell grub to boot it from that prompt.
