I believe they go into /etc/network/interfaces, like such:
======================
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# This is a list of hotpluggable network interfaces.
# They will be activated automatically by the hotplug subsystem.
auto eth1
# The primary network interface
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.254
dns-nameservers 192.168.0.5 192.168.0.3
dns-search mossholder.com
========================
The last two lines are the most important....
