That's too old. The change I mentioned has appeared in the amd tree 
maybe two weeks ago.

Yep. Amd calls the 'unmount' command when it times out the mount.

Correct.

No.

You need to use ${key} for that instead of "${smbshare}" (which, you 
guessed it, is not defined), since it has the value that the wildcard 
currently matches. And, of course, the directory that the 'mount' 
command uses as mountpoint had better exist - but you could take care 
of that with a wrapper script.

You probably want to get a copy of Erez Zadok's "Linux NFS and 
Automounter Administration".  ;)
