Hi
OK. Nearly done. I now have the automounter working:
/etc/auto.users
* -fstype=cifs,rw,sec=krb5,username=cifsuser,multiuser ://oliva/users/&

It works fine except I have 2 keytabs per client.
 /etc/krb5.keytab
produced by
 net ads join
It contains the host/client and MACHINE$ keys 
and 
 /etc/cifs.keytab
produced the DC and copied to the clients which contains the cifsuser
keys.

Question: will cifs only look in /etc/krb5.keytab? Can I get it to look
at /etc/cifs.keytab instead? OK, I can ktutil merge them but. . .

Thanks for your patience.
