As far as I know these two are mutually exclusive. If using the grub compatibility stuff in FILO then AUTOBOOT_FILE will never be used.
I don't like grub and thus always stick to only using AUTOBOOT_FILE.
In your case the line looks fine if the kernel is stored in /boot/vmlinuz, if it's /vmlinuz then change to hda3 instead of hda1 in the first argument.
Oh, and make sure you build FILO with reiserfs support if the kernel is on your root partition.
