amd knows about NFS filesystems; you don't want to use type:=program.

You probably don't need this if you're using amd. Let it mount the
filesystems for you.

My mapfile:
: * 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:=/
This map will allow you to NFS mount any host by using
/host/<hostname>/mountpoint syntax, plus it optimizes /host/localhost,
and /host/<localmachinename> to symlinks to /.
Take a look at the am-utils infopage for more information (and samples
for just about anything that you'll want to do).
