I'm experiencing the exact same problem.

So... Which files in the "/etc/samba" folder are required by "samba-
common" ?

Taking a cue from your statement that some files int the "/etc/samba" folder 
were required by samba-common
I tried to use synaptic to re-install samba-common but I got this error:

E: samba-common: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit
status 1

Are there other packages that store files in "/etc/samba" ?

It would be really nice if the samba folder was only used by samba.

P.S.  It has taken me more time to correctly configure samba than it has
taken me to write my own secure file sharing system in PERL (4 days).
It works for now but I really need samba!
