Chris, If your dhcp server is handing out dynamic addresses from a pool, then it won't give the workstation a hostname. This isn't fatal. It just means you can't use the hostname for sections in the lts.conf file. instead, you can use IP addresses or MAC addresses in lts.conf.
Take a look at: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/LtsConf If you are using static IP addresses, then make sure you have the line: use-host-decl-names on; that should be in the sample file provided.
