Just edit -
/etc/network/interfaces
Take a look at "man interfaces"
It should look something like -
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.10.7
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.10.0
broadcast 192.168.10.255
gateway 192.168.10.1
depending on your configuration.
Then run -
# /etc/init.d/networking restart
That should do it.
