Dear community,
I am having problem natbib in linux (for latex). I have unziped the natbib.zip and and installed it through the following commands
$ latex natbib.ins
$ latex bibentry.ins
Some files are generated after these procedures. Now if I keep these files in my working directory (where I am writing my latex documents) the features of natbib are shown by the results. But I am confused where should I keep these files so that natbib works without keeping these files in my working directory. For convenience I am giving the names of the files generated bellow

I am using fedora 8 distribution. About the type of latex I don't know. I just write .tex file through in a tex editor (like gedit) and compile it through latex command.
So can you tell where should I keep the above mentioned files.
They are usually placed in a .../texmf/tex/latex folder. Once you do that you'll need to run the texhash program to let your tex system know about them.
