Public bug reported:

Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) changed Samba for Apple's proprietary SMB stack.
This stack has incompatibilities with the "default" smb:// mount modes
supported by Samba and Gnome VFS.

If I mount the system via Nautilus, opening the location
smb://computer/share, I can see the file list and navigate it, but I can
neither copy to nor from the machine (error is NT_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED,
reflected in an error dialog with the message "Function not
implemented".

If I mount the filesystem using mount.cifs, adding the options
"noserverino,nounix,sec=ntlmssp", then I can access all of the
information fine on the far end.

It is possible that this bug could go away if using Samba 3.6 - which
fully supports SMB2 - but I've not been able to verify it because there
are no Samba 3.6 packages for Natty or Oneric yet, and because I've been
reluctant to roll my own Samba packages.

Is there a way to configure GVFS to use a set of mounting options when
connecting to a specific resource? I.e. "when connecting to this server,
use these options" (like the ones mentioned above)?
