#/etc/auto.rmd
zip -fstype=vfat,uid=0,gid=35,umask=007,rw,unhide,quiet :/dev/sda4
In my case gid 35 is group 'dos' and I add the users that I want to
access the disk to the 'dos' group. You can call it whatever you want
of course. I also use the same for the floppy and local mounts of vfat
disk partitions that are managed with autofs. The only draw back is
that all files and directories get the execute bit set which doesn't
play nice with my ls colorization scheme, but is necessary for members
of the group to traverse the directories.
