Hi, thank you for your reply.
So, all is OK, I just haven't understand the internal working of autofs. It's just seem a bit silly to me, that autofs don't show the differents mount point of a map in the map's directory. If I mount data in /autofs, I must change directory to /autofs/data for seeing it... But if I don't known the existence of /autofs/data, how can I do that ??? Is the symbolic link the only solution ?
