Package: autofs
Version: 4.1.4-8
Severity: important
Hello there !
I have discovered autofs recently and it looks amazing to manage samba share.
So I have uncommented auto.smb in the auto.master file and tried lsing
/smb/myserver/ . Failure!
My file server is a Microsoft Windows 2000 system that require a username
and password to connect to.
I have patched the auto.smb file (see below) so it look for an optional
credential file that looks like /etc/auto.smb.<hostname> . I have a few
hosts so its easy for me. If the file doesnt exist, it just use the
old system.
Here is the full file (sorry I got no proper patch cause I forgot to backup
the original file).

#!/bin/bash

# This file must be executable to work! chmod 755!
key="$1"
credfile="/etc/auto.smb.$key"
mountopts="-fstype=smbfs"
smbclientopts=""
for P in /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin
do
if [ -x $P/smbclient ]
then
SMBCLIENT=$P/smbclient
break
fi
done
[ -x $SMBCLIENT ] || exit 1
if [ -e $credfile ]
then
mountopts=$mountopts",credentials=$credfile"
smbclientopts="-A "$credfile
else
smbclientopts="-N"
fi
$SMBCLIENT $smbclientopts -gL $key 2>/dev/null| awk -v key="$key" -v
opts="$mountopts" -F'|' -- '
BEGIN { ORS=""; first=1 }
/Disk/ { if (first) { print opts; first=0 }; print " \\\n\t /" $2,
"://" key "/" $2 }
END { if (!first) print "\n"; else exit 1 }
'

Then i created /etc/auto.smb.<hostname> which contain:
username = Someuser
password = Somepassword
Then a ll /smb/<hostname> gave me the files :p
Can you review it and eventually add it to the debian package ? Thanks!
