we have to use another directory than /srv .
The directories for mounting partitions weren't created there ...,and look it is not possible to create there ...

perhaps the /srv directory is a special one ? Also administrator cannot make directory inside it ?

From the article you linked.  Perhaps this is the reason you don't see
them from the command line.
"""
Please note, although our drive is now listed as an active mount point
the disk is not mounted yet! autofs only waits for user to access
specified mount point directory and once that happens it will mount the
filesystem.

Example:

$ cd /media/
$ ls
$ cd Iomega
$ ls
lost.dir  music  picture  ps3  video mystuff
$ cd ..
$ ls
Iomega

From the output above you can see that Iomega directory was created
only when I tried to access it. Every time you now plug in you USB
external disk you can instantly access it via some sort of Desktop or
Bookmark shortcut. I hope this helps !
"""

Try doing a cd into the directory, and then doing an ls.
