I've pinged Ralph who looked into the patch.
Comment 6 lejeczek 2018-11-08 18:56:29 UTC 
Yeah, yes, that would be great to have it work. I remember I had in an old SUSE which nicely showed user names, then... I migrated to RHEL.
Also (might be separate) a bit of an issue is "SharePath" in the output.
If someone can improve that smbstatus code, I'd suggest make that "SharePath" so it would also show shares names.

many thanks, L.

The command doesn't show usernames as this will affect the performance. If you have thousands of connections and have to resolve names it can take a very long time. Displaying username in addition could be done using a new command line options it can't be the default.
