I apologize if this has been discussed earlier, but I looked around for
an archive of this list but I couldn't fine one.

        I just recently got smbmount and automount working together. 
Everything works great except for the problem that I had to put my
username and password in plain text in a file for it to be able to
smbmount directories.  This is fine for a single user using a single
machine.  However,  I would like to deploy it such a way that when a
user changes directory to do an automount using smbmount, automount
determines the current user id, and then prompts them for a password to
smbmount the requested CIFS share.

        Can this be done?
