I'm new to Xen stuff. I have a XenServer 6.5 running, with XenCenter and a Debian installed as a PV VM. I'm trying to setup the extra security now so I don't have to learn about it after I've been screwed over. (driver domains, pvgrub, and maybe FLASK)

A lot of pages seem to talk about editing values that look like they belong inside a guest (domu) configuration file.

Where is this file located? (I looked in /etc/xen)
What are some common file formats? (so I can use find at least)
Does the location differ if I go with something like Debian as dom0?

The complete configuration is stored as XML in

/var/xapi/state.db

It's recommended to use only the xapi commands to edit the configuration. There is also a dbtool from citrix here http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX121564.

I think the way the information is stored is specific to xenserver, howerver someone needs to confirm this.
