Samba is the unix implementation of the SMB and CIFS file share protocol.

รข its not exclusive to windows. But they did invent it. And it it the most common

Most operating systems can talk SMB(v1 - v3) and CIFS .

Personally I prefer other more secure file sharing technologies so I disable this 
even on windows hosts to harden them.



Do you mean that it is safe to remove it? I don't do any file sharing.
