do you mean:
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
Thanks....

What I did on my laptop (running apache):
In apache.conf you can set it by using:
SetEnv MAPSERVER_CONFIG_FILE /opt/mapserver/mapserver.conf
If you use Nginx though (which apparently lacks env variables) I used:
https://gist.github.com/lhammond/f59d8db526101e9896d0c9bdd8f15139
https://mkliver.github.io/blog/mapserver-ubuntu-nginx
But maybe others have better solutions...
