Title:
  Samba shares over gvfs do not respect ACL rules

Status in gvfs:
  Unknown
Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gvfs source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * It's impossible to use ACL-configured smb shares via gvfs (e.g.
  nautilus) as it logs in as an anonymous user by default.

  [Test Case]

  1. LDAP authentication for client & server.
  2. SMB server with a share accessible to a certain ACL group or user.
  3. A user (that should be allowed to access the share: is a member of a authorized group or is an authorized ACL user) accesses the share from a client using nautilus and smb:// URI.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Change already present upstream (introduced in version 1.23.90)
   * I see no risks in backporting it.

  [Other Info]
   
  Original bug description:

  Looks like the SMB backend does not support ACL rules while accessing
  remote shares.

  The scenario looks like this:
  1. LDAP authentication for client & server.
  2. SMB server with a share accessible to a certain ACL group or user.
  3. A user (that should be allowed to access the share: is a member of a authorized group or is an authorized ACL user) accesses the share from a client using nautilus and smb:// URI.

  Expected result:
  Access is granted to the resource.

  Actual result:
  Permission denied for accessing the resource in question.

  Actual result:
  No sign of ACL rules in the getfacl output.
