Guys, I tried ALL I cant to get this working on a XBMC Live install (Ubuntu 10.04.03 LTS) but I can't...

I set up autofs in my working laptop and it was a breeze. Didn't face any issues. I've just copied the same kind of setup and I can't get it working. It startups, does the mounts.. but I can't access anything inside of it:

I get errors like this:

ls: cannot open directory Videos/: No such file or directory

Could any good soul help me out?

My /etc/auto.master is just this:

Code:
/mnt/NFS       /etc/auto.type      --ghost,--timeout=30
(all the rest is commented out)

then my /etc/auto.type is:

Code:
# NFS mount for the Downloads shared folder on NAS
Videos    my_local_ipr:/volume1/Videos
persmissions of files re:

Code:
xbmc@XBMCLive:/mnt/NAS$ ll /etc/auto.*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  719 2011-09-07 23:51 /etc/auto.master
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1374 2010-08-17 07:35 /etc/auto.net
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  747 2011-09-07 23:52 /etc/auto.type
xbmc@XBMCLive:/mnt/NAS$
and also, the /etc/nsswitch.conf have that last line:

Code:
xbmc@XBMCLive:/mnt/NAS$ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf 
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.
