I've got a Sun-based automount map that I need to translate into Amd
automounter daemon format.  This map creates a hierarchical series of
mounts on /usr/local with the twist that /usr/local itself is an NFS
mount which contains several automounted directories below it.  I
can't figure out how to achieve the same effect with Amd.

Here's an excerpt:

/usr/local \
		/				arnold:/local3 \
		/bin				arnold:/local4/$ARCH/bin \
		/lib				arnold:/local4/$ARCH/lib \
		/man		-soft		arnold:/local4/$ARCH/man \
		/X11R6				arnold:/local4/$ARCH/X11R6 \
		/genome-data	-soft		gertrude:/local \
		/users		-soft		arnold:/local \
		/genome		-soft		trudy:/local2 \
/var/spool/mail			-soft		trudy:/local/spool/mail

Thanks for your help in advance.

Lincoln
