Sorry, I should have said that is is an 825 running 3.1. I took a look at 
a 300 running 6.5 and it wasn't in /etc/ or /usr/adm/.  It was in
/etc/newconfig and the README said to put it in the /usr/adm/ directory.
After that I looked in the /etc/newconfig/ on the 800 and the file is
there, but no README.  I still wonder how it got to /etc/.

That one is in the correct place.
