It should be part of your python-installation and located in

lib/python2.2/config

I dunno where it is on redhat but I guess /usr/lib/python2.2 or so.

If it's not there you maybe have to install the devel-Packages of your
python version.

If you compiled it yourself, e.g. with --prefix=/opt/python2.2 
if can be found at /opt/python2.2/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile.pre.in

Just copy it to your ZPatterns directory and run make -f Makefile.pre.in boot
