Well, those are quite useful files but have nothing to do with what Mark was 
asking.

man fvwm 

contains the correct answer...

INITIALIZATION
       During  initialization,  fvwm will search for a configura-
       tion file which describes key and button bindings,  and  a
       few  other  things.  The  format  of  these  files will be
       described later. First, fvwm will search for a file  named
       .fvwmrc in the users home directory. Failing that, it will
       look for /usr/lib/X11/fvwm/system.fvwmrc  for  system-wide
       defaults. If that file is not found, fvwm will exit.
 
And, FWIW, fvwm2 is superior IMHO to fvwm.  There's a nice packaged up "rpm" 
of it in the Red Hat contrib ftp directory:
	ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/contrib/RPMS/fvwm2*
