FreeBSD 7/CURRENT and AutoFS or AMD (automounter) with OpenLDAP

Hello out there,
I run into trouble.

When looking for AutoFS in the net I find a lot about AutoFS on Linux 
and, surprisingly, for FreeBSD 6.X, but those messages are dated to the 
year 2004/2006.

I'm running FreeBSD 7.X and FreeBSD 8.0-CUR boxes and tried to find 
something about AutoFS, but I'm still stuck with the 'well known AMD or 
Berkeley AutoMounterDaemon.
What happened to AutoFS?

I'm stuck with amd (from FreeBSD's contrib) and I need to keep my maps 
in OpenLDAP, but when searching for how to map amd.map-files into the 
right shape of an OpenLDAP object (I borrowed the RedHat 
automount.ldif-schema, OpenLDAP 2.4.11 seems to lack in an apropriate 
schema), I only find Linux-Howtos reflecting AutoFS in Linux (and that 
is different from amd).

Is help possible?

Thanks, in advance,
Oliver
