I do not know how data areas for AIPS are set up for a pure OBIT user.
This file is used to communicate adverbs from AIPS (or the obit python
layer) to AIPS tasks and is critical when running AIPS.  A normal
AIPS manager would set up the aips logicals (source LOGIN.SH in the
AIPS_ROOT area) and then RUN FILAIP and answer the questions (usual
answer is 6 2).
