Comment 18 for bug 1701073

I get the same access denied error with 4.6.5 packages, built with or without the patch for this particular regression (#12860 upstream) (my 4.6.5 artful test packages: ppa:ahasenack/samba-merge)

I think sharing the real root filesytem (/) is not a common scenario. I found one bug upstream related to sharing "/" and has been untouched by developers since late 2013.

Let's see if it was working in a previous version, then there would be a bigger incentive to have this fixed upstream.
