I never use the gui tools. Some versions of RedHat ago, one of the
official network settings tool completely overwrote my wvdial.conf
file. I was fortunate because I had a backup of it, but I decided that
day that I would not be trusting my settings to any such tools. I'm quite
happy editing config files myself. But I really think that if RedHat are
going to produce tools to make system configuration, the tools must be
very robust.
