Title:
  CIFS automount with "nounix" option create empty directories

Status in autofs package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I'm trying to mount two CIFS shares from my Verbatim NAS. Because of
  permission problem, I need to use the "nounix" option when I mount
  them. If I do that with the command:

  sudo mount.cifs //X.X.X.X/media /mnt/media/ -o
  credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=100,dir_mode=0775,file_mode=0775,nounix

  everything works well.
  If I write the same command in my auto.home file:

  media
  -fstype=cifs,credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=100,dir_mode=0775,file_mode=0775,nounix
  ://192.168.1.253/media

  I get a "media" directory empty.

  Can you help me?
