Joe you don't believe that this will be harder <smile>
(than putting xterm in .xsession, with no wm)

OK make your SCREEN_01 parameter ssh to the server
/opt/ltsp/i386/lts.conf

heck, make it [default] then add startx where required.
make your server accept ssh

Otherways are harder: telnet rlogin etc all need server configs
(and carry security baggage)
