Similar usage and results here as the above person. Using only English
and Korean Locals all works fine for me.

I've checked on 4 different machines, of which 2 laptops with fresh 9.0
installs and the 2 desktops were 8.2 upgrades..drak(x)conf works fine on
all of them.
Admittedly I am Dutch but don't have/use Dutch (or any other) locales so
indeed that might be the direction to search:o)

thanks. I had not seen this on my own install since I did not use it at all.
But after seeing it at the machine there, I tried it here with the same
result, so I dont think its just a fault of my installation. Maybe it depends
on a special modul that is not installed on some systems.

No, I'm german, but maybe the locale thing could be the right direction on
discovering these errors. Maybe some other people do have the same problems?
An strace on drakxservice shows a lot of :
execve("/usr/local/sbin/tinyfirewall", ["tinyfirewall"], [/* 48 vars */]) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
on the event of choosing Auto Installation

Re: [expert] BUG: drakxconf in Mdk 9.0
I did about 6 different installations, and I can confirm this bug in drakxconf on every single one of the installations I performed. Moreover, drakconf simply doesn't work: Gtk-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to 'GtkObject' at /usr/sbin/drakconf line 857. Can't call method "set_active" on an undefined value at /usr/bin/drakconf line 423. I don't know, put the poster of the original message could be dutch-speaking from the email address. In all of my installs, I also use dutch-belgian locale. Maybe there's possibly an issue?
