What should i know about my processes?
Is there a place i can go to see what each one does, and be able to take them off if i dont want them to run?

Regards,
Joshua

You can view use the command "ps aux" in ssh or PowerPanel "Running processes".

Just google to find out what they do.

This is a very broad subject. Regarding specific tasks you don't want running, I would need to know what you would want to disable in order to tell you if that would be a good idea.

You can look in your WHM at the system processes or a better place for a "live" view would be SSH by running "top" from the command prompt. When inside of top, press Shift M to sort by memory useage and Shift P to sort by CPU useage.

The PowerPanel can show you information about your running processes as well.
