Are you searching for this command??

stsadm -o setconfigdb

You have to use it when the the database server are renamed or you want to connect the MOSS to other config database.

In case of renaming app db you have to do it with "stsadm -o addcontentdb" like the previuos answer said.

Go into Central Admin, and under Content Databases, remove the database from the web application. Unfortunately, you can't reattach a content db using Central Admin, so you need to use stsadm. Here's the command:

STSADM –o addcontentdb –url <URL name> -databasename <database name> -databaseserver <database server name>
