Sometimes, it's easier to configure things directly by editing the contents 
of /etc/sysconfig, rather than try to figure out how to do it using some 
flashy GUI.

What you want to do is not really that exotic. However it is also rather 
uncommon, so, sometimes, you find that the tools which are designed for 
average users and common situations simply cannot accomodate an unusual 
situation, even though, underneath, it's not really that complicated.
