[Bug 502262] [NEW] autofs4 doesn't timeout cifs mounted shares

[kja999]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: autofs

Autofs is not auto unmounting after the timeout.

I have adopted using autofs on 3 machines, a 9.20 mythbuntu, and two 9.04 crunchbang machines.
On the crunchbang machines autofs will correctly honour the information in the auto.master and timeout the mounts when not in use ('not in use' is checked via lsof for the mount).
On the 9.10 mythbuntu box however the mounts always remain active although no files are in use. Manually unmounting works correctly.
Nothing in logged by autofs in messages/syslog
I removed any switches for the timeout to see if it was my config but even the default timeout time doesn't work.
(To see what timeout was relevant I run: 'ps -elf | grep autofs', you can see the timeout switch in the command)

The config and autofs versions on all machines are the same
(4.1.4+debian-2.1ubuntu2).

My config files are attached.
