                          mount error 13 = Permission denied

[root at machine_name ~]# tail /var/log/messages

Bu the way, there is no "module_cifs.so" in /usr/lib/autofs and package
autofs does not have it any more?? Why is it looking for it? I suspect
that's  why AutoMount want mount the file system from the server??
