[Solved] - Is this Samba thing a problem?

[kdemeoz]

Thanks. Well, based on your advice, + my earlier info [that i do not use Samba & will never need to], i have now removed Samba via Synaptic [which also removed Winbind]. It was, btw, the same version that you indicated.

I was surprised to see however that there's several other Samba-like packages that Synaptic did not remove at the same time, & afterwards i found that even

Code:

sudo apt autoremove

did not remove them:
   

Presumably none of these things should be needed anymore on my Tower -- is that true? If so, then after your confirmation i shall remove each of these as well.
