FC5 and Wireless Configuration

I did a Fedora Core 5 install on a notebook, then plugged in a Cisco
Aironet PC card. The card is recognized, but I can't keep my essid and
key in the machine after a reboot. I set the essid and key via iwconfig
and the "Network" GUI located under System|Administration.

I see that my essid is stored in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 and my key is in
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1. Both values are correct,
however, when the machine comes up, the card default of essid "tsunami"
and "key:off" are set...

How do I keep my essid and key persistent? Thanks!
