What do I use to reconfigure the network /after/ initial install on Etch?



Hello,

On Debian Sarge, I used to use "dpkg-reconfigure etherconf" to reconfigure the 
network settings after the basic install was finished (if I needed to change 
the settings).

Just in case you don't know, "dpkg-reconfigure etherconf" brought up an 
ncurses interface for configuring network settings (IP Address, Gateway, DNS, 
host and domain name). It was a nice tool. It looked just like the 
installer's network config section.

Etherconf disappeared in Etch - I don't know why. I've been editing network 
interface files by hand but I don't like it.

Does any utility exist in Etch for [re]configuring the basic network settings?

Not a Gnome or KDE utility, because I don't install X on a lot of my boxes.

Thanks,

	JW
