In DOS 4.01 (but not, I think, in DOS 3.xx) REM can be used freely in CONFIG.SYS just like a batch file. I use it regularly to 'switch off' lines I might want to reinclude later. I presume DOS 3.xx is being used, in which case upgrade to DOS 4.01 - I like it, and feel the adverse publicity it has received (re memory hit) is exaggerated. Hope this of some use.
