Yes, my goal was to automatically mount samba volumes, without having to mess with passwords.  I was just following directions I found online, and I see now loading pam in su is not necessary.

I'm trying to mount the sharename "srvshare" (listed in my smb.conf file) on my jerome server at the local mount point /media/srvshare.

Looking at df and listing the contents of /media/srvshare it doesn not look like pam_mount is mounting what I want.  I'm trying to figure out what I missed or have setup incorrectly.  My questions are trying to figure out how to debug this.

I can connect to srvshare via Konqueror (smb://jerome/srvshare/nagle_ext1).
