Various texmf.cnf files set up search paths for the components of TeX.
Type
kpsexpand '$TEXINPUTS'
on a command line and you might be able to see where and in which
order TeX searches for input (CLS, STY files). It might be easier to
see it with this command:
kpsexpand '$TEXINPUTS' | tr ',:' '\n'
Directory paths starting with ``!!´´ are not searched but looked up in
ls-R "cache" files.
Some documentation is contained in the texmf.cnf files. Other
documentation can be obtained from running
texdoc tds
