I don't think Continuum is looking for it there... Maven is.  AFAIK,
there's no way to get Maven to default to looking elsewhere, though
you can add -s /path/to/other/settings.xml on the command line.

What problem are you trying to solve by doing this?

That file is optional, if you're trying to have different settings for
the same user, you might try using $M2_HOME/conf/settings.xml, and
then having multiple Maven installs, setting M2_HOME in each
environment as appropriate.

In addition, with Maven 2.1.0, you can also use -gs for global settings.xml
which by default is referring to $MAVEN_HOME/conf.

-s should work which is what I am using now in Continuum 1.3.2

Thanks, I have all my dev-related work in a certain folder, so I wanted to keep that out of c:.  I will try the -s option, however.  Thanks.
