E sim, é seguro remover o samba:
sudo apt-get remove samba
para remover o samba4:
sudo apt-get remove samba4
Eu não instalei o samba manualmente no meu Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop. Nem eu uso para nada. Então, é seguro removê-lo?
Se eu removê-lo, os seguintes pacotes serão removidos, o que também eu não instalei:
samba-common samba-common-bin smbclient
Deveria ter vindo já instalado com o Ubuntu, certo?
Nota: A razão para remover o pacote é porque eu recebo estes no boot, para o qual não encontrei uma solução no google:
