is it possible to see all files that are theoretically viewable by a link but not linked on the main website?
For example:
Let's say the website has:
index.html
undepage/index.html
supersecretdocument.pdf
Is it possible to see the supersecretdocument.pdf know that the document exists without knowing that it's there?
If you're asking "Can I know a file exists without trying to GET (or HEAD) it?", the answer is "no."

scenario: I have ssh onto a remote server and have created a directory named helloworld/ and after working with it for some time I wanted to rename it to something like hello_world/ I was wondering how I can easily do that.
I was looking online and I was not able to find much resources, but I think this is a pretty simple thing, so I imagine there will be a simple way of achieving this.
Please let me know
mv <source_directory> <target_directory>

One of the data elements produced by the finger command gives information on how long a logged in session has been idle. Where does finger get that information from on RedHat? I've looked in /proc/<pid>/ but did not find anything useful, and the documentation doesn't go into the commands implementation.
So, where in the system is finger (or w) pulling this information from?
The finger program get's this information from utmp file located at /var/run/utmp.

I am making a folder where there are some shared files which can be read and written by anyone (but not executable) in a server. But I don't know what kind of owner and group are used for the files. Are there any special or well known owner or group for the purpose? Thank you very much.
The best approach to do this would be to use:
chmod 110
This will change file permission to read & write, no execute

I'm trying to make files in my linux virtual server browsable from my windows. I'm following the instructions given here: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/samba-fileserver.html
However, I cannot find the security parameter it's talking about. Can I just create that anywhere under the [global]? Or is there a pretty specific place to put it?
Yep, you can just specify the "security=" parameter anywhere in the global section.

I would like to have more clarification on the functionality of sync(8) and fsync functions in Linux (2.6.31). Does it make sure the files are written to the respective storage?
http://linux.die.net/man/8/sync
It does not make sure that files are written to respective storage. It only makes sure that cached/buffered data is flushed to the disk device. It doesn't matter if this is an SD Card or whatever.
