orapswd and REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE

I am using Oracle 9.2 and am on HP UNIX. Using orapwd command, i can specify any
password file name (in any directory) and it does create the password file
wih the file name I specify. e.g.
orapwd file=mydir/myfile_name

However, I do not find any parameter in init.ora or an environment variable to pick this file name, e.g., when I set REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE=exclusive
and start the database, it looks for a file named: orapwd$ORACLE_SID in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs

Does anyone know how to force Oracle to pick myfile_name instead of default password file name? I have read various Oracle manuals, but cannot find such
information.
