Check the output of 'mount' and make sure that /var/autofs/misc is
there. Also, have you tried just cd-ing to /var/autofs/misc/data_win?
Automounted filesystems tend not to show up in a listing of the primary
automount point until they're actually mounted; if they did show up,
you'd have problems when, say, you listed a directory containing network
automount points when you weren't connected to the network.
