su
-, to become root, use emacs or vi
/etc/sysconfig/networking/device/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
HWADDR=00:16:E6:46:F6:D1
IPADDR=192.168.1.13
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1

Then, edit
/etc/resolv.conf and enter the DNS address(es) nameserver
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/etc/hosts and enter any name short cuts you want xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
