I used redhat-config to configure a

I need to manually do
iwconfig eth0 key a1112aa0
soon enough for the dhcp-client (lunched by
/etc/init.rc/) to get an ip address.
Is there a way to fix this problem?
Thanks.

Read up on init and make yourself a bash script file in /etc/rc.d/init.
Copy one of the existing ones and modify it. You can then set this up
as a service for your machine. Once you create the file you can have
those commands in it. Then make a start and kill link in your
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d and /etc/rc.d/rc5.d paths (multi user and X run levels).
This will then occur automatically for you. It would be nice to have
something like this automatically setup by a wizard. There may be one,
but that will work for you.
