Arguably it's a deficiency in automountlocation-tofiles. I was having a
hard time wrapping my head around things when I wrote the automount
support oh-so-long-ago so I hacked that command up to try to see what
was being created in a file-like setting. It is, to say the least, very
simplistic code.
It doesn't parse the automountinformation attribute, it assumes it is
pointing to a key entry. It doesn't understand the ldap: prefix.
I don't believe this prefix is required but it looks like you're trying
to share the same map between two locations which we never intended.
