To change these parameters of your machine, edit the following
files:
/etc/hostname
/etc/hosts
/etc/init.d/network (if you use slink aka Debian 2.1)
/etc/network/interfaces (if you use potato aka Debian 2.2)
I guess that these should be the first places where you should
take a look at.
You might also like to change other places like:
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/host.conf
