Sample settings.xml required

Can somebody provide me link to a sample settings.xml?
My problem is that I have eclipse maven plugin. This eclipse is one which I have copied from somewhere and the plugin came with it.
Now the settings.xml isn't created as usual in .m2 folder. So I need a sample settings.xml so that the maven plugin works in my eclipse.

NB: I am using eclipse Galileo 3.5

Thanks.

As mentioned in the m2eclipse FAQ:

How to Configure Proxy and location of Maven local repository

Eclipse Plugin is using Maven’s settings.xml for proxy, local repository location and any other environment-specific configuration. This way we can use same settings between the command line and the IDE.

Default location of the settings.xml is at <user home>/.m2/settings.xml, but you can also specify location of the global settings, i.e. one in <maven home>/conf/settings.xml.

You can see what a minimal settings.xml looks like in this blog post on "Build a mixed Scala 2.8/Java application from scratch with Maven (Eclipse Settings)":

<settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
  http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd">
  <localRepository>
    C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/.m2/repository
  </localRepository>
  <interactiveMode>true</interactiveMode>
  <usePluginRegistry>false</usePluginRegistry>
  <offline>false</offline>
</settings>

(Change the 'localRepository' path to adapt it to your encvironment)

All the details on a maven settings.xml are in the Maven Setting reference page.
