New to Bitcoin and to the community. System went live early Tuesday morning. Have the following output to share:

user@system:/usr/bin/bitcoin-0.3.20/bin/64$ sudo ./bitcoind getinfo
{
    "version" : 32001,
    "balance" : 0.00000000,
    "blocks" : 111413,
    "connections" : 23,
    "proxy" : "",
    "generate" : false,
    "genproclimit" : -1,
    "difficulty" : 55590.23763914,
    "hashespersec" : 0,
    "testnet" : false,
    "keypoololdest" : 1299036147,
    "paytxfee" : 0.00000000,
    "errors" : ""
}

Is it reasonable that the system has been running this long and is still not crunching hashes? Just curious... any comments greatly appreciated.
Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

"generate" : false,

May be mistaken, but think that should be true.

Much better thank you.

You should know that — depending on your rig, of course — it could literally take years to mine a single block.  You're probably better off if you join a pool.

Cheers,

Running Bitcoin as root is probably a very bad idea.
