There are no 'XML files'. However, we trick the end-users into thinking there
are by having Apache generate them on-the-fly when requested. To set it up
using the RPMs, just install the 'rivendell' and 'rivendell-web' packages on
the web server, set up the database connection in '/etc/rd.conf' and enable
the 'apache2' service. (No need to run the 'rivendell' service on the web
server).

The feeds can then be accessed with a URL like this:

http://yourserver.example.com/rd-bin/rdfeed.xml?MyFeedName

If you want to see this in action, try:

http://feeds.radioamerica.org/rd-bin/rdfeed.xml?MRP

Cheers!

If you're installing from source, then you'll need to include
the 'conf/rd-bin.conf' file in the Apache configuration. This file is
generated automatically by the build system on the basis of the location
specified for the web scripts (by means of the --libexecdir= switch
to 'configure'). Then, just restart Apache.
