[opensuse] why is samba on my machine?

I'm running leap 42.2. I don't use Windows but YaST says that the samba package along with a bunch of other packages associated with 'samba' are installed. smbd doesn't appear to be running, and YaST says the file server pattern is not installed. So why are all these samba packages present on my machine and is it safe to delete them? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
