depending on your Debian version:

slink (or upgraded slink to potato):
  edit /etc/init.d/network

pure potato:
  edit /etc/network/interfaces


For any of them, edit /etc/resolv.conf to change your dns setting.

Also note, that if you change you IP, also edit /etc/hosts to that it
reflects the new IP address.
