Public bug reported:

I have a smb share with guest access set up on an OpenMediaVault box.
>From a Windows 10 PC I can read and write the whole folder tree of this
share, without password. On my Ubuntu box, I can do the same using
smbclient, with null password.

However when using Gnome Files to access the share, choosing "anonymous"
connect, I can only create or write files in the top level folder.
Attempts to create or write to a subfolder result in a "Permission
denied" error. Reading works across the whole folder tree.

The same happens when using the gio command line interface (here trying to 
create folders):
$ gio list smb://herkules.local/gvfs-bug
new1
$ gio mkdir smb://herkules.local/gvfs-bug/new2
$ gio list smb://herkules.local/gvfs-bug
new1
new2
$ gio mkdir smb://herkules.local/gvfs-bug/new2/new-sub
gio: smb://herkules.local/gvfs-bug/new2/new-sub: Permission denied
$
