Hi,

I've just upgraded to Fedora Core 2, and the autofs has changed from 3.1.7 to 4.1.2.
Previously, I would automount Windows shares using an auto.smb file with an entry:

myshare  -fstype=smbfs,username=mydomain\\myuserid,password=insecure,uid=500,gid=500,fmask=775 ://winsvr/myshare

In the new autofs 4.1.2 package, the above entry provokes a bug which was not present before.
Windows requires the username to be of the form:

	mydomain\myuserid

The problem is that the new autofs strips ALL backslashes from the options, and supplies
mount.smb with:

	username=mydomainmyuserid

The attached patch fixes this, but I would suggest someone more familiar with the package
review it, since I have not analysed the source to any great depth.

Regards,
	George Hansper
