WPA Enterprise Wireless settings not saving

Hi there,
I'm using WPA Enterprise. When I edit the account I put in my username and password and click save. However, all the fields go blank as the dialogue box closes and when I go back in, none of my changes were saved.

I tried almost everything, including a format & reinstall, but simply cannot get OS X to remember my wireless settings. Googling around didn't help at all.

Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround?

MacBook Pro 13inch, Mac OS X (10.6.5), MacBook Pro 13inch

Not sure if WPA enterpise is different than standard WPA.

Others with problems of OSX remembering thier wifi passwords have gone into Network Preferences select Airport and then the Advanced button to get at a list of known networks. Then delete this site from this list. Next go to Keychain and delete passwords to this network. Most at this point reset the wifi and try accessing again (inputting the password). Seems to clear out enough stuff to make this problem go away.
