Note that by running rdesktop remotely you will waste bandwidth and
have worse response times than if you run it locally. (While that is
true for all LTSP applications, the idea of a large number of clients
using rdesktop via an LTSP server seems especially awkward to me, it
is like doubling the costs of running applications remotely).

So if you have more than a few clients, consider running rdesktop
locally.
