        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
