Ah ha! Yep it's a typo - pg 61 of the Packt book (pg 78 in PDF form) has .m2/conf/settings.xml
So it deploys now... no need to use plain text password. Thanks for that, and apart from the typo, excellent book Brett. I've skimmed the whole lot and now slowly working my way through it - I'm moving my development from a bunch of ant scripts and manual moving of jar dependencies to maven - I'm looking forward to moving the opencsta project into the 21st century (and new website)!
