Yes you do.  Don't worry about it, and just let the RUN script figure out
where.  It looks in the right place (which happens to be 
/usr/local/aips/31DEC01/$ARCH/LOAD/SETPAR.EXE, where $ARCH expands to your
architecture, e.g. LINUX).

Do this from a shell prompt (I illustrate it with "bash$" as the prompt):

    bash$ . /usr/local/aips/LOGIN.SH
    bash$ RUN SETPAR

and follow the instructions you got.  The LOGIN.SH modifies your PATH
variable so that you don't need to specify where the RUN script is, and
more.
