The problem with these GUI tools, especially redhat-config-network is that they don't operate on the standard setup of files for configuring the network. For the case in point redhat-config-network operates on files in /etc/sysconfig/networking (as opposed to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts -- which had become the "redhat standard" in previous releases). Until the GUI tools are bulletproof I would advise to stay away. They are supposed to make configuration easier but all that the really do is create confusion (on the system) and dumb-down the admin.
