Hmm. I'm not familiar with /etc/sysconfig. Which distribution are you
using? (I think I recall you mentioning RedHat, but I'm not sure.)
In any case, assuming I'm interpreting the syntax correctly, it seems
like it *should* work. Perhaps you've edited the file, but not
activated the changes? When you edit certain system configuration files
(such as /etc/resolv.conf), the changes take place immediately. Other
files don't have any effect until you take some action. My guess is
that /etc/sysconfig is interpreted by your start-up scripts. The
easiest solution (*assuming* that's the case) would be to reboot. But
there's no need to; you can grep your startup scripts for 'sysconfig'
and find out how it's being interpreted, then simply duplicate that on
the command line.
Perhaps someone who's more familiar with your distribution that I am
could offer more specific advice.
