title: Unable to see 'npmrc' file for node JS v6.9.5 on Linux
body: <p>I was using nodeJS v6.9.5 on Windows7 machine and modified <strong>npmrc</strong> file located at path -C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\ with following lines to add scope and registry URL for installing my project dependencies/ required packages. It worked well and I was able to install the packages.</p>
  
  <pre><code>scope=test-incubator
  @test-aquila:registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now, I have installed node JS v6.9.5 on Linux machine using <a href="https://nodejs.org/dist/v6.9.5/node-v6.9.5-linux-x64.tar.xz" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://nodejs.org/dist/v6.9.5/node-v6.9.5-linux-x64.tar.xz</a>
  , I'm unable to see npmrc file at path - node-v6.9.5-linux-x64/lib/node_modules/npm/</p>
  
  <p>I'm unable to see and edit <strong>npmrc</strong> file to install my project dependencies.
  Can anyone please suggest, where to get this npmrc file on node JS setup folder on Linux machine or any other alternative to add scope/registry url for npm configuration.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks </p>
