Use "chkconfig --levels 2345 pcmcia on" to enable PCMCIA services.
The startup script for pcmcia loads yenta_socket for you.

As far as iwconfig, do the first two items you have above (or use
"/etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start"), then use "redhat-config-network" (RH)
or "system-config-network" (fedora) to configure eth1 or wlan0.  Once
that's set up, it should work automatically.
