This is set in /etc/samba/smb.conf -- a line near the top of the file
should read
Workgroup = blah
> ip address to dhtcp
In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 put
Bootproto dhcp
This is presuming you're using an ethernet card and not a modem for the
connection. If it's a modem, it would probably be something like
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 (I'm not sure though because
I've only set up a network connection under redhat using an ethernet
card).

DNS settings are in /etc/resolv.conf.
