I recently changed my password and have to change my maven settings.xml file to reflect that. However, no matter what I do in the settings.xml file, the changed password just won't get picked up. Out of desperation, I ran maven with the -s switch (mvn -s <my intended settings.xml file>) and everything just started working. It seems to suggest that maven by default is using a "wrong" settings.xml
Is there a way for me to figure out where the settings.xml file that maven is using is located?

mvn help:effective-settings shows the effective settings of the current environment including your location of settings. xml file. Additionally showPasswords=true will help you see the passwords resolved as well if you are using environment variables.
Open your Eclipse and go to Window -> Preferences. Click on the Browse button of User Settings , and select the settings. xml.
Use the Maven debug option, ie mvn -X :
Apache Maven 3.0.3 (r1075438; 2011-02-28 18:31:09+0100)

In this output, you can see that the settings.xml is loaded from /home/myhome/.m2/settings.xml.
