Still present in 9.2RC2 drakxtools-9.2-9mdk

Still the same behaviour. I have an orinoco based pcmcia wireless card 
installed.
I go through the drakconnect wizard filling in all the wireless parameters.
I click 'Finish' to exit the wizard. The card starts working and I can see 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 contains the wireless parameters.

I then click 'OK' to exit drakconnect and the card stops working and all the 
wireless parameters have disappeared from 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

Example failure scenario :-

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 is set up for an pcmcia Ethernet card, but 
the user is replacing the Ethernet card with a wireless card.

The user starts mcc and selects the networking GUI. 
The user presses the 'Wizard' button and goes through drakconnect to set up the 
wireless card parameters. On pressing 'Finish' to exit the wizard the new parameters 
are used to set up the card, and it starts working.

The user then presses 'OK' in the networking GUI, and the original contents of 
ifcfg-eth0 are then written back again and the card stops working.

The user has to exit the GUI with 'Cancel' in order to retain the modified contents of 
ifcfg-eth0.

This is obviously not very intuitive.
