Ah, no. We use the automounter to mount directories on demand, either 
the user's home folder at login or other shares when the user attempts 
to enter them. With a lot of users, autofs is great because it mounts 
only what is requested, not the whole lot.

Actually I think it's the cifs-utils which create the cache as it's 
needed because we tested it without the automounter running: the user 
can still log in but he does not get the cache until he attempts to go 
into a cifs mounted share. Maybe the cifs gurus could tell us whether it 
is pam or cifs which creates the cache?

Yes, that's correct. The automounter mounts then as and when they are 
requested.

Question: is sssd instead of nss-ldapd or instead of pam. Or both? IOW, 
does it pull stuff from ldap? Maybe it does both. Although we share the 
relief of having got rid of winbind from the equation, we're always 
looking for alternatives to our ldapd setup.
