If I got right what you want, dpkg-reconfigure is your friend:
locate the package(s) to which the setting belongs which you
want to change, and then call dpkg-reconfigure <packagename>.

You'll be asked the same questions you were asked at install
time.

You can also give dpkg-reconfigure a (space separated) list of
packages, do do several in a bunch.

Cheers
