You'll need to edit /etc/init.d/network if you're talking about the ethernet IP address.
For PPP dialed up to a normal ISP, that's determined by your ISP, not your machine. As an asside to the list, what's the chances of the /etc/init.d/network scripts being replaced with something else? Long ago I hacked up a script for slackware to read bits and pieces from a directory and use that information to build the interfaces. It'd make admining a lot easier (I did it because I had a box with 3 real interfaces and a dozen aliases) and handles things like being re-run when the interfaces are up.
