the config goes in /etc/network/interfaces
and should have contents similar to:

auto lo0
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static 
        address 192.168.1.10
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.1.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        gateway 192.168.1.1

also, check that a networking script exists in /etc/init.d and is
referenced in rc?.d (where ? == 1,2,3,4,5,6)
