In your map, add a proto=tcp keyword for whatever host you want to
force UDP with.  I use the following map:

# Mapfile for /net.  Requests for "localhost" and the local machine
# create symlinks to /; all other requests become NFS mounts.
#
# $Id: amd.net,v 1.4 2001/04/26 15:40:39 dan Exp $

*		host==${key};type:=link;fs:=/ \
		hostd==${key};type:=link;fs:=/ \
		type:=host;fs:=${autodir}/${rhost};rhost:=${key};opts:=rw,intr,soft,proto=udp

localhost	type:=link;fs:=/

Looks like typos to me.  amd's map syntax is very difficult to get
right.
