I had a look at the attachment, but could see anything (to my eyes) that look untoward in there, except the fact that you've got "maxusers" set to 0. This value tells the kernel how many "new file / processes can be opened. This definitely should be higher, probably somewhere around 132. What does /var/log/messages & /var/log/security say whenever you try to access a remote host, or ping the local machine. If it were a firewall issue the attempts would have been logged there. Bump maxuers to 132 asap, and try seeing if anything gets logged when testing later.
