           Summary: Dolphin does not support ACL with kioslave smb:/
           Product: kio
           Version: 4.5
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: smb
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: ftoth at telfort.nl


Version:           4.5 (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

Although Dolphin supports ACl's nicely, this is not the case over the smb:/
kioslave.





Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
When using the kioslave smb:/ in either Konqueror or Dolphin ACL's are not
supported at all, and user/group ownership are faked to show the current local
user.


Expected Results:  
When using smbmount this works fine, owner/group/ACl permissions are all shown
correct in Dolphin.

Should work for kioslaves as well.

This is unfortunate as a linux user tends to set the group to the user account,
with no permissions (controlled by umask). Windows users will prefer to set a
shared group ownership with full permissions. A mixed group of linux/windows
user will eventually lead to a lot of files the windows user can not read.

The way to bypass this for shared groups is to create a default (inheritable)
group permission using ACL's. Samba supports this fine, and when unixextensions
are set to true this works good for linux as well.
