Hi,

Just install vncserver onto the ltsp system using the inetd option, then
people with windows, mac, or various other os's can run the tiny
vncviewer app --- it fits on a floppy (you can even have the app on the
ltsp server website so users can just click on it and choose "run from
location").  It works great.  They will get the xdm, gdm or whatever
login system you are using.  

Once you install vncserver here is the entry to place in your etc files:

/etc/services
vnc0    5900/tcp

/etc/inetd
vnc0    stream  txp     nowait  nobody  /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc -inetd
-broadcast -once
-geometry 1024x768 -depth 16

Now when users run the vncviewer app they enter the server location as
"server.ltsp.com" since we are running the service on 5900 you don't
even need to specify a virtual display number which is often seen with
vncviewer.

You can even add other resolutions, but I would recommend adding them at
ports 5950-5999 because the vncserver starts the actual sessions
starting at 5901.
