Description jo de baer 2005-09-19 10:24:35 UTC
When using YaST to set up the WEP key for my wireless card (Linksys WPC 11
pcmcia card) the WEP key is not set up at all, as shown in iwconfig. I need to
use iwconfig key to set up the key in a konsole, after which I get an ip address.

You can log into my laptop if needed to test - I am novell staff.

Please attach y2logs, /var/log/messages and the output of "rcnetwork restart".

I think this bug should be marked as duplicate. It's the same issue than 115207
(https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=115207).

Configuration is found, it contains the key, so I think the problem is in 
sysconfig or lower.
