Guess the docs are the next thing to look at... Sigh.
Have you tried the smbmount program that comes with 2.0.2?
You have to configure with --with-smbmount when you run configure.
Note that the syntax has changed from the smbmount that came from
the smbfs package. The syntax with the samba smbmount is not (yet)
compatible with automount. I've got a front end script intended to do
the parameter syntax translation to let the samba smbmount work with
autofs.
You can get more info on smbmount.sh at:
<http://www.wittsend.com/mhw/smbmount.html>
I haven't updated the page for a while so it doesn't mention that
I'm now on the Samba Team and I (try to) maintain the smbmount program.
The information that is there is accurate, though.
