I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do here.  amd is not used
to *export* filesystems.  amd mounts filesystems from remote NFS
servers as they are referenced.  Maybe you're looking for exports(5)?

The problem you're seeing comes from the fact that you set up an
indirect map mounted on /usr/local.  Since amd emulates the entire
directory, no user, not even the superuser, can create entires in it.

If you are trying to set up the machine in question as an NFS
*server*, you should be looking at exports(5) and nfsd(8) rather than
amd (unless this machine is also an NFS client).

Hope this helps
