I sorta got /net to work by using autofs4 and editing my /etc/modules.conf to add:
alias autofs autofs4 autofs4 includes: /net /etc/auto.net --timeout=60 in the /etc/auto.master. But then the automounting of the users drives didn't work (the old autofs script handled that). So then I edited my auto.master to include: /users auto.users but for some reason I have to restart /etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs to get the users drives automounted and the /net functionality (If I reboot the users drives are not automounted). I also noticed that /net doesn't work with my HPUX boxes for some (NFS protocol?) reason. Works with Linux, Solaris and AIX though. Thanks!
