This is the relevant portion from my XF86Config

Section "Files"
        RgbPath      "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
        ModulePath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules"
        FontPath     "unix/:7100"
EndSection
 
Also when using the X font server you don't need the
freetype and type1 modules loaded in XF86Config

Section "Module"
#       Load  "freetype"
#       Load  "type1"

My /etc/X11/fs/config file looks like this

# font server configuration file
# $Xorg: config.cpp,v 1.3 2000/08/17 19:54:19 cpqbld Exp $

I am sure that RedHat has their own way of doing these so
don't just blindly copy these!!!

You should be able to restart the font server by
logging in as root and entering the command

/etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs restart

then enter

ps ax | grep xfs

and look for something like this

13062 ?        S      0:03 /usr/X11R6/bin/xfs -droppriv -daemon

if you don't see it, you have X setup problems and not fontconfig ones.
