a2ps configuration file should be located.

I have

	$HOME/.a2psrc

You can run truss, trace, strace, or ktrace (depending on Unix flavor)
on a2ps to see what files it tries to open.

I just did this on Sun Solaris SPARC:
	
	% truss -o foo.truss -f a2ps foo.c > foo.ps
	% fgrep /.a2ps foo.truss 
	...
	7655:   open("./.a2psrc", O_RDONLY)                     = 4
