Anyone have any luck with WEP and RH8 or RH9? I've tried 64bit and 128bit keys with no luck. I can put in ASCII strings in the GUI setup, and iwconfig shows them converted fine but they never find the WAP. Take it all out and go naked, all works fine.
This is a known bug. It has been bugzilled and fixed (in one of the RH engineers FTP sites). Sorry, I don't have links at hand.
You can fix it manually by editing:
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1
Or whatever your wireless device is. Redhat-config-network always converts a hex key into a string by adding an s: to the KEY= value. Just remove the s: part of the key. Be warned, however, that if you go back into redhat-config-network and change anything, it will mangle your hex key again.
