[Samba] Samba and automount?

[Bjørn Tore Sund]

I tried pam_mount but have had several issues; primarily with getting 
rid of the mount later.  pam_cifs is simpler, easier and better for cifs 
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/pam-cifs.  Combined with pam_mkhomedir 
you should be getting very close.  I'm using pam_cifs on a network with 
(currently) 400 linux clients, mounting home directories directly from a 
Samba share.
