system-config-samba won't open


Title says it all - are there enough issues with samba in these forums?

Here's the cli error msgs:
Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/system-config-samba.py", line 41, in ?
    mainWindow.MainWindow(debug_flag)
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/mainWindow.py", line 79, in __init__
    self.samba_data = sambaParser.SambaParser(self)
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaParser.py", line 177, in __init__
    self.parseFile()
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaParser.py", line 218, in parseFile
    section = SambaSection (token.value)
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaParser.py", line 45, in __init__
    raise Error ("section %s already defined" % (name))
NameError: global name 'Error' is not defined
None of this means much to me. Does anyone have any solutions?

TIA


cheers,

SOLVED

I was trying a couple of samba-related scripts which rewrote my smb.conf

Fortunately, the original (working) conf had been backed up. I restored the original, and everything is as it was.


cheers,
