Now this is for my laptop. I'm the only one useing it, so this is kind
of for a single user.
Start my editing /etc/auto.master and un comment the

#
# Sample auto.master file
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# For details of the format look at autofs(5).
#/misc /etc/auto.misc --timeout=60
#/smb /etc/auto.smb
#/misc /etc/auto.misc
#/net /etc/auto.net
/smb line.
Then for me I had to change the auto.smb with the following patch
[bpm]$ diff -wruN auto.smb /etc/auto.smb

the important change was changing the "opts" line and the "/Disk/" line
The credentials file is just a file with two lines:
username=XXXXX
password=ZZZZZ
The last thing to do is to make sure the autofs is working:
chkconfig autofs --list
autofs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off
Turn it on with
chkconfig autofs on
