Changed hosts and importing database

I've had some pretty poor service from my original hosts, so I decided to jump ship. I had an RC4 (with several mods and a few themes). I downloaded the database and I've successfully transferred it to my new host. How do I go about getting my new (clean) RC5 install to connect to the imported database?

If I was to copy the settings.php file from one host to the other, what would I need to edit - the database names are completely different.
