Suppose I want to back up my home directory using tar.

What service do I need to stop to eliminate this vfs file error during

# ls /etc/init.d/*vfs*

Given the errors, and what ls displays, .gvfs is probably a corrupt
directory/file entry and when tar hits it will report an error but
hopefully not crash.
Or, perhaps more likely, you're running the backup as root and root
does not have the ability to view the .gvfs dir in your user's home
dir (due to the way fuse works).
You should be able to either exclude .gvfs from the backup or run the
backup as your user.
Yes, this is true and fixed it.
Thanks,
John
