Can you detect the Samba that is installed from Entware too as running?

I can take a look as time allows. I assume there's an Entware service script (.../init.d/Snn...) associated with it; if so, it can be checked to see if it's currently running. Note that I don't use Samba at all on my router.

Yes it is called

S91smb

For every Entware service you have in your setup, you always have the following commands available to execute:
start / stop / restart / check / kill

Just execute the service's script file with your desired command. All Entware service scripts are located at the following folder:

/opt/etc/init.d/

So, in your case particularly, you have the following command to check the SAMBA service:

/opt/etc/init.d/S91smb check

I think it's not much practical to build your suggested feature into scMerlin, as I don't believe there are that many users who use the SAMBA service from Entware.
Please note that I do use SAMBA but the built-in one, so actually I do understand your needs.
