Comment 5 for bug 1576187

Can't be fixed since Samba simply doesn't output the needed data. This is
actually a Samba bug if I recall well :)

Well, I have this problem since April and still waiting for a fix. And
since downgrading Samba seems to be a PITA, can we have an update on
this bug?

Problem still happening with Samba 4.3.11

Thanks!
