Yep, /etc/network/interfaces is a text file.  By typing it in directly, you're 
trying to run it, and it's not marked as being runnable ("executable"), so it 
says permission denied.

Try reading it with:

   less /etc/network/interfaces

  
This is what I get:
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

# The looopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

#the first network card - this entry was created during the Debian installation
# (network, broadcast and gateway are optional)
auto dummy0
iface dummyo0 inet static
          address 192.168.1.10
          netmask 255.255.255.0
          network 192.168.1.0
          broadcast 192.168.1.1
          gateway 192.168.1.1
