 4482 ?        S      0:00 /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd
 9181 ?        S      0:00 /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd
 9186 ?        S      0:00 /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-http --spawner :1.3 /org/gtk/gvfs/exec_spaw/0

But it is not accessible:
neil at holly:src$ cd gvfs/gvfs-0.2.1/programs/
neil at holly:programs$ ./gvfs-info http://www.google.com/
Error getting info: The specified location is not supported

Killing 4482 makes no difference - 9181|6 are root processes.

Killing all the gvfs processes means that I now cannot even get results
from sudo, even after sudo invoke-rc.d dbus restart.

$ sudo ./gvfs-info http://www.google.com/
Error getting info: The specified location is not supported

Before I killed the tasks:
$ ./src/deb-gview
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gpe-tetris/gpe-tetris_0.6.4-1_i386.deb
** Message: GDaemonVfs

$ sudo ./src/deb-gview
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gpe-tetris/gpe-tetris_0.6.4-1_i386.deb
** Message: GDaemonVfs

The overall situation hasn't changed - nothing can be queried remotely
without sudo (but now I can't get even sudo to work). I don't want to
logout and login again (or reboot) because I've got a lot of other work
in-progress and this really shouldn't need to be this hard.
;-)

What about:
 5248 ?        S      0:00 /usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/gnome-vfs-daemon

Is there an IRC channel where I can find you?
