Not to completely dodge the question, but are you intending to always
mount back to localhost or another unix machine for your automount
sources?  You may want to look at nfs for unix-unix remote fs tasks.
Samba is fantastic for it's purpose, but you're doing a double
conversion here.  That being a posix filesystem which samba makes look
like cifs on the server, then the samba client takes cifs and makes it
look like a posix filesystem.
