Ok, I believe that the difference is that archiva.xml is used if archiva is
set up as a standalone repository.  

I think the distinction is that If it's not standalone, it's deployed as a
web app on Tomcat, for instance, as opposed to running standalone, it runs
as a service controlled by the init.d scripts (Ubuntu)

Sound right? 

Mine is running as a service on an Ubuntu linux box (controlled via
/etc/init.d/archiva) so I guess that makes it standalone, and therefore I
think I need to use the archiva.xml to configure it...

Am I understanding this correctly?

If so, I need to migrate my configurations from settings.xml to archiva.xml. 

Are there any hooks that I need to add to my settings.xml to reference the
archiva.xml file?

Am I on the right track?

Thanks.
