gvfsd-http exists in Fedora, Ubuntu, and several other distros. Does anybody know what this process is used for? There is no information on the net, other than "gnome virtual file system".
What is it used for?
If it is not mandatory, how to get rid of it?
Sometimes I see connections like this:
tcp 1 0 192.168.1.3:45229 50.17.249.143:80 CLOSE_WAIT 5463/gvfsd-http
As you see the process is gvfsd-http. The IP address belongs to: cz-usa.com, a gun company. I had nothing to do with this website. Any ideas what is this process doing?
This is a gvfs module for http support. It is used for example when you drag an image from the browser to the nautilus window.

When I SSH into my server, it has a really long name
user#this-is-a-really-really-really-really-long-server-name:~$
How can I change this to
user#short-name:~$
I'm not sure what to even google for.
Like Matt said. There is similar question on Unix.stackexchange
And you find some Background
here
Modify PS11
PS1="touch me : "
question is if you want to really change the hostname of the server, or only whats displayed at the beginning of the cli.
if you want to change the hostname, you better check specifically for your distribution.
if you only want to change what's displayed at the beginning of the cli, alter the ${PS1} variable via ~/.bashrc (user specific) or /etc/profile (global) or something like that.

Hi I am a noob with linux server stuff.
I was wondering if there is a command in linux or there is a way to see which "user" has viewed or accessed a file in linux?
is there a such command?
I thought 'stat' command works could be a possible option, but after googling, I found out that someone posted here at the bottom:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/get-last-accessed-file-time-in-ubuntu-linux/
that there is not a way to view 'who' accessed a file. Is this true?
The audit subsystem can tell you who or what has accessed a filesystem object.

I would like to know meaning of each and every column of top command result.
If you see the screenshot, It shows lot of Java process under the user 'resoultion'. But here only one Tomcat is running.
%Mem is same for some of the processes, The Consolidation of these numbers are higher than 100.Please explain what does this mean?
You can find everything you need to know about that command and the meaning of the columns, here: http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl1_top.htm
You can also use the following command to access the manuals in the console: man top
there is a system wide command available
man top

I'm running Debian. I want users to be unable to see my processes when they type 'ps aux'. A web search wasn't clear enough on how to do that, but it seems to be possible. How do I do that?
There are no simple ways, other than fancy things like tweaking the kernel code or the ps command code, or things like trying to use an innocent-looking name for the process. See:
https://superuser.com/questions/199044/is-it-possible-to-hide-a-process-from-the-listing-of-ps-or-top-on-linux
There are no questions of users or groups: everyone can see everyone's processes.
This cannot be done. What are your motivations for doing this?

like what is X windows,Cygwin,file system
Well, first you have to choose which Linux distribution you wish to use/learn, then you just use that distro's documentation, which normally has allot info.
You can find here some linux beginner lessons: http://www.linux.org/lessons/beginner/toc.html
Finally the best way to learn, besides reading is "getting your hands dirty". Install a distro of your choice and mess with it :)
I think this is a great way to start
