Autofs mount Samba shares on Linux Mint Debian Squeeze

There is a problem with autofs on Linux Mint Debian (Squeeze?) - the auto.smb file does not cater for the credentials file.  To fix you can download an updated auto.cifs file, see:

Also edit the /etc/auto.master file to include the line:
/media/smb     /etc/auto.cifs  --ghost

----------
Error observed in /var/log/syslog before this file was corrected:
*Enter root's password
