Hi Everybody,
This is a problem that keeps bothering me. I have a HP Laptop
that I installed Mint 17 a few months ago. When I turn on my
laptop, I scan it for open ports and find stuff like cups,
smbd, avahi-daemon..
I have disabled them with service and removed them from start
up with update-rc.d -f <name> remove. But when I
restart my computer, they are back. I have a desktop with
Ubuntu 12.04 that I did this with and it was fine. I doubt
that Mint 17 which is suppose to be like Ubuntu 14.04, should
be having this trouble.
