It could be a broken package or a bug. You might want to check with Fedoras website and see if anyone has already filed a bug report on it.

Try re-installing system-config-samba? Try Re-installing Samba?

thnx for your help. even though i haven't been able to solve the problem at least i found a way to get around it. i installed webmin and then i was able to modify my samba settings.
