Hi RobJac, I recommend you take a look at: http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-configuring-maven.html which explains how to configure M2 - look for the settings.xml file.
For a complete reference about using 'settings.xml' file - see http://maven.apache.org/maven-settings/settings.html Hope this helps, Arik.
