Because the way Samba protocol works it might be some time (as much as some good 10 minutes, may be a little more) until the shares are up and ready to be accessed on the network. This is not the case with NFSv4 in which case AutoFS will find and mount instantly any share providing the NFS server is up, of course. OTOH if the NFS server is down when you try to access it via AutoFS the NFS client on your machine will initiate the Stall of Death, but that's another song :p > Good news was that I was able to get a systemd share.mount unit working > with a wol.service unit.
