Tom, I agree with you.  I decided to use the LTSP server as a NAT/Firewall server because my cable router didn't have enough ports to connect all my computers to  it.

In the end, I had to modify the Shorewall policy to accept ALL traffic from the LTSP LAN.

I am, however, still interested to learn how to configure Shorewall to accommodate LTSP clients.

I know nothing about shorewall. What I do know is that (imho) you are
better off placing the firewall on a separate machine between your router
and your ltsp server. One of our volunteers at FREE GEEK MICHIANA has an
LTSP server behind a firewall behind a cable modem. He (Goose) put his
firewall-on-a-floppy on an old IBM PC 330 (P90, 32mb) with two nics. It
works well.
