It is interesting to see the leaps in your logic. I do not run
samba. It
actually got installed by my mistake and I deleted as much of it as I
could because I consider it a big security vulnerability.
You just don't get it, do you? It doesn't matter if you're running
Samba or not. Kio will attempt to access those files which it is
programmed to use for its purpose (virtual file system library). The
files in /etc that you mentioned are part of this task.
