What key cylinder did you buy ? Some company's were selling the short cylinder which was not for a car with an alarm.

edit-if you bought this set , you can't use the alarm.

In your 79 there is no "electrical" connection between the anti-theft and power door locks.
Key locking the drivers door will not power lock the passenger door.
