just edit /etc/network/interfaces and add entry for static or dhcp address.
something like this for dhcp:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
or for static address:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address x.x.x.x
netmask x.x.x.x
network x.x.x.x
broadcast x.x.x.x
gateway x.x.x.x
you mabye want to first run ifdown eth0
edit the file
and run ifup eth0
