Default control file for Monit is "monitrc" and that is what the official documentation refers to. Some 3rd party distributions customize the file name and/or location, which is perfectly fine, but we don't held any responsibility for such changes => just use the configuration file which your Monit package provides, or use the official source code/binary, for which the manual is written.
