Auto Mount fails on CIFS share

Question

I have setup auto_master with the following line:
/-    auto_direct
I also have tested a client smb share connection with the following successfully since this node is a member of the cih-ettm windows domain;
I have also setup smbadm add-key with this users name and password so that when I mount here with the following command a password is not required.
mount -F smbfs //chaos.cih-ettm.com/InboundImages /export/home/ttp/images
This works and I get a mount point and I can copy files to the directory and the windows box sees and can access the files.
If I try to set this up as an automount by adding the following line to /etc/auto_direct and execute the command automount I receive the error 'not owner'
/export/home/ttp/images -fstype=smbfs,dirperms=0755,uid=ttp //chaos.cih-ettm.com/InboundImages
Error returned:
automount: mount /export/home/ttp/outboundimages/images: Not owner
I also have the following lines in the /etc/security/exec_attr
Basic Solaris  User:solaris:cmd:::/usr/lib/fs/smbfs/mount:privs=sys_mount
Basic Solaris User:solaris:cmd:::/usr/lib/fs/smbfs/umount:privs=sys_mount
In all cases the 'ttp' user is the owner of the /export/home/ttp/images
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

Found out this same thing this morning. Was getting constant invalid argument errors and indeed removing "noatime" from the fstab entries fixes it. Looking at mount.cifs man page there is not only no reference to noatime but neither to relatime or anything like that.
Guess that functionality has been removed in cifs-utils? Not sure but the Wiki will need updating regardless.
