Here with openldap 2.0.11 I have an autofs schema (from redhat I
presume, seeing the directory it is in, of course you have to include it
in slapd.conf).

$more /etc/openldap/schema/redhat/autofs.schema 
# Depends upon core.schema and cosine.schema

# OID Base is 1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.4
#
# Attribute types are under 1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.4.1
# Object classes are under 1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.4.2
# Syntaxes are under 1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.4.3

# Attribute Type Definitions

attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.1.1.1.25 NAME 'automountInformation'
	DESC 'Information used by the autofs automounter'
	EQUALITY caseExactIA5Match
	SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26 SINGLE-VALUE )

objectclass ( 1.3.6.1.1.1.1.13 NAME 'automount' SUP top STRUCTURAL
	DESC 'An entry in an automounter map'
	MUST ( cn $ automountInformation )
	MAY ( description ) )

objectclass ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.2312.4.2.2 NAME 'automountMap' SUP top
STRUCTURAL
	DESC 'An group of related automount objects'
	MUST ( ou ) )
