I recently (about a month ago) upgraded to Fedora 8 (previously on

Fedora 6).

Autofs mounting of shares ending in $ worked on FC6. I think this is the 
first time I've tried since on Fedora 8.
I've got another Fedora 6 box and shares ending in $ still work ok on 
this box.

I've tried playing around with the auto.samba script I use but no luck.
Output from it is:

RUN:  auto.samba matthew
-fstype=cifs,username=mjurgens,password=parallel12 \
         /cd "://matthew/cd" \
         /C "://matthew/C" \
         /G\$ "://matthew/G\$" \
         /E "://matthew/E" \
         /G "://matthew/G" \
         /ADMIN\$ "://matthew/ADMIN\$" \
         /C\$ "://matthew/C\$"
(This is the exact same result as the Fedora6 box)

 From the debug info, the mount command that fails is:
mount -t cifs -s -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD //matthew/C\$ /smb/matthew/C$
This works manually if I:
mount -t cifs -s -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD //matthew/C\$ /mnt/matthew
The other share to the same location works fine through autofs:
mount -t cifs -s -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD //matthew/C /smb/matthew/C


Autofs Version = autofs-5.0.2-27
uname -r = 2.6.22.14-72.fc6PAE (I know its an FC6 kernel, everything 
else is FC8 and I've been running on this since the upgrade due to a 
problem with either mkintrd or nash)

Reference to an earlier problem with a fix to shares ending in $ where I 
got the map from:
