[wplug] Automount and CIFS/SMB mounts

[John Harrold]

Sometime in February Bill assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| I cant seem to get my samba server to auto mount actual Windows shares
| using automount.
| 
| I know to use automount, I need a key entry in auto.master that points
| to the map file, auto.fookey that contains the mount parameters.
| 
| My problem is that I have found several different examples on how to set
| this up and none of them use the same syntax.  
| 
| This is what I have right now:
| 
| #auto.master#
| /mount/point /etc/auto.key 
| 
| #auto.key#
| /mount/point  -fstype=smbfs,username=winusr,password=winusrpwd
| 	//winsvr/share

i assume you can mount the smb file system fine with the mount command?
