Question #251439 on samba in Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+question/251439

alienheartbeat posted a new comment:
thanks for an extremely helpful answer.

Wasn't sure which dpkg option you meant
but:
	sudo dpkg --search "samba"
showed it is started by cron.daily

The dpkg log was too large to pinpoint an answer (8,000 lines on that day)
but pointed to a few plausible offenders.

What eventually turned up the answer was:
	apt-cache --installed rdepends samba
	
which showed winbind now depends on samba (it didn't in 12.04)
and wine1.6 depends on winbind.

Funny that 
	aptitude show wine1.6 
and 	apt-cache show wine1.6
and	Muon package manager
all just show that wine1.6 **recommends** winbind 
but **does not** depend on it.

Wonder if there is a packaging bug in there?

I checked the wine ppa to see if I could go back to wine 1.4 or 1.5
but they don't seem to be built for 14.04.

So what I might do is after I have configured and tested my progs on wine1.6
is to just uninstall samba and see how it goes.
In any event I can likely remove the cron.daily starting of samba with no ill effects.

Again, thanks for the help.
