How to create NAS nfs automounts in Mavericks

Question

So I had 3 automount nfs shares working in Mavericks last week, but for some odd reason all stopped working along with access to TimeMachine on my NAS and the ability to open disk images.
After some digging I removed my automount modifications to auto_master in /etc and all started to work again... my problem now is how do I now get my 3 automounts to work again so Aperture and iTunes can see their content on my NAS...
I had added this line to auto_master /Volumes/  -auto_share
I had created a flie in /etc called auto_share and this contained the following
Vault 
-fstype=nfs,soft,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,noatime,timeo=900,retrans=3,proto= tcp 192.168.128.20:/Vault
Multimedia 
-fstype=nfs,soft,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,noatime,timeo=900,retrans=3,proto= tcp 192.168.128.20:/Multimedia
Aperture 
-fstype=nfs,soft,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,noatime,timeo=900,retrans=3,proto= tcp 192.168.128.20:/Aperture
This worked and then it stopped...
Any help appreciated

Hi Andrew, as promised, here is my login script. Substitute anything in and including <> for your info. Copy/Paste into AppleScript Editor, save as an .app and add to login items for a user. Logout script to follow.
tell application "Terminal"
     try -- See if the NAS is awake, if not, wake it and give it time to appear
          do shell script "ping -c 1 <ip address>"
     on error
          tell application "Terminal"
               try
                    do shell script "/Applications/wol -q -p=7 <mac address>" -- if the NAS supports WOL
                    delay 120 -- give more or less after timing NAS startup time
               end try
          end tell
     end try
     try -- Make the mount points, repeat for how many are needed
          do shell script "mkdir /Volumes/<Dir1>"
          do shell script "mkdir /Volumes/<Dir2>"
     end try
     set success to 0
     repeat 5 times -- try the mounts 5 times, then bomb out
          delay 5
          try -- perform the mounts, change protocol formats as required (e.g. for SMB mounts "smbfs://..."
               do shell script "mount -t afp afp://<user>:<password@<ip address>/<Share1> /Volumes/<Dir1>"
               do shell script "mount -t afp afp://<user>:<password@<ip address>/<Share2> /Volumes/<Dir2>"
               close every window -- close Finder windows that automatically open on mount
               beep
               activate
               with timeout of 43200 seconds -- Display success dialog and wait up to 12 hours (doesn't need that long) for user to click "OK", reason: see last line, leave out if not needed
                    display alert "<Share1> and <Share2> are now available."
               end timeout
               set success to 1
               exit repeat
          on error number errNum
               tell application "Terminal"
                    quit
               end tell
          end try
     end repeat
     if success is not 1 then -- the bomb out section
          beep
          activate
          display alert "Please check that NAS is on then Log Out and Log In again. ( " & errNum & " )"
     end if
     quit
end tell
tell application "<application name>" to quit -- auto-close any apps that you don't want running for this session, without OK message delay above, script will time out and this line won't execute
