CentOS - Jan 2012 - libz.so.1 => not found

Hello,

We have an older AFS server, which was running Centos 5.5.  It hasn't been
updated in a while because of the plans to move it to another server, but it
never happened.

Thus, we've decided to upgrade it to 5.7?

I did yum clean all and yum update.  Everything ran smoothly and no issues. 
After the reboot, zlib.so.1 can no longer be found.   /usr/lib64/zlib.so.1 is a
symbolic link to /lib64/zlib.so.1, but the file does not exist.  Because of
this, ssh/yum/rpm do not work?

I've been googling, but can't find a solid answer.  This is a production
server and I need to have it up and running as soon as possible?

Any ideas?

Thank you!
Asya

Sorry, i meant to say /usr/lib64/libz.so.1 is missing?

Thank you for all your help,
Asya
