Hello Tarjei,
You don't need to provide a password if you correct configure
client $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa or $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
and
server $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys
Thus use of ssh to launch local apps should be straightforward.
You don't need NIS to launch local apps using rsh/ssh
NIS is fairly unsecure and should not be used unless you have a very trusty
network, it makes shadow pass useless.
To launch local apps with rsh without NIS,
ltsp workstation: create an user named rmtapps
ltsp server: create an user rmtapps with the same uid
to launch the app:
sudo -u rmtapps rsh/ssh ${DISPLAY%%:*} "appname -display ${DISPLAY}"
does the trick
of course, you will need a correct configured /etc/sudoers file.
Good luck.
