You can. It's systemctl disable smbd To mark smbd as not to be enabled; and systemctl stop smbd To stop it if its already running. To expand on one point: > I don't think smbd is handled by systemd yet At least on jessie, it isn't, in so far as there are no .service files provided by the samba package for smbd (they *do* provide a "samba.service" file which is emtpy and serves the purpose to 'mask' the service name 'samba' so if you run 'systemctl start samba' nothing happens. Some backstory about why they've done this is in http://bugs.debian.org/740942). But, jessie's systemd will run update-rc.d on your behalf if you run 'systemctl disable/enable smbd'. -- Jonathan Dowland Please do not CC me, I am subscribed to the list.
