Bug Description
This applies to gusty gibbon (fully updated) as of 2007-10-09.
I tried to share a dir, and without thinking named it "[share]", which froze the configuration GUI, and put a number of (empty) [[share]] stanzas in samba.conf.
So, maybe it would be a good idea for the GUI to check for invalid characters before applying the setting?

Just to clarify, this is what happens when i use "[]" in share name;
a snip from /etc/samba/ smb.conf;

I can't open the configuration GUI until i remove those stanzas.
