Mahesh, The problem is, on your system, XDM isn't configured to update utmp and wtmp, so the users don't show up as logged in, even tho they have definately logged in.
Derek Dresser wrote up some notes on how to fix this. It's on the LTSP contrib page. You might find enough info there to fix your problem.
