try this
ping -c 10 -s 32 12.108.240.165
from the linux box. that will send 10 pings @32bites and see if you still get packet loss.

The traceroute's are identical with the exception of the first hop that the
winbox makes to the linux box.
The target (destination) box is a linux box too.
I give up. If you guys can ping it with no packet loss, I'm happy. If I
can't ping it from home because my config is screwed so be it. I can ping
the rest of the world just fine. And if you need more torture here's the
ping result by IP only (no hostname). I appreciate the assistance, but I'm
convinced that somehow it's the fault of DNS.

I really don't think it's dns.... I mean. you are resolving fine, and
resolving the same ip address in both pings. once you resolve, it stays in
the machines own cache for the time being, so you don't have to resolve on
each ping. What happens when you run ping against the ip address instead of
the name? From my external router, I sent 100 pings to you with a datagram
of 100 and a 2 second time out. I got a
100% response.

Pretty odd if you ask me. I think the problem is my secondary DNS, but
I'm not certain just yet. When I get home tonight, I will try tracing
the route from the Winbox and the Linbox to see how they differ (if at
all; I don't think they do).
