I am trying to access my windows 7 pc from my ubuntu laptop running 11.10 64bit but I cannot open the system-config-samba gui.

I am following this tutorial. My windows 7 pc sees the laptop no problem at all.

You need to install glade and python-glade. It is most easy using synaptic. i/ve have had the same problem and now it works fine.

sudo apt-get install glade
sudo apt-get install python-glade2
sudo install gksu system-config-samba 

then run:

 gksu system-config-samba
