Maybe.
I will be using an anonymous (NULL basdn and password) connection for my LDAP patch
initially.
Are your automount maps confidential. What is the need to password protect them.
The only question is will a bind with NULL basedn and password work with LDAP v2 and
v3 in general as well as OpenLDAP 2.0 and OpenLDAP 2.1?

it is already in a config file for pam/nss ldap; in /etc/ldap.conf
if autofs could actually use that file to retrieve binddn/password that
would be fine .
