Dear Petre, Sudev, Jim, et. al.:
Thanks again for all your help. I've now got it to at least read the
section of lts.conf that relates to the host now named ws079, but it gives
a fatal error when booting into X, with reference to a log I can't find
(/tmp/mnt/X.log or something like that - neither/var/log/, /tmp/, nor
/opt/ltsp/ contain anything related AFAIK.) I guess I really need to know
what video to specify for a VIA Unichrome device, if that's included in
the video section available, or load a new driver. I suppose I'll like the
non-slow non-VESA compatibility mode performance better than what I'm
getting now.

Put this in /etc/dhcpd.conf and then restart dhcpd:
host ws079 {
hardware ethernet 00:16:ec:1d:6c:49;
fixed-address 192.168.1.79;
}
There are other parameters that can be added, but this will get you started.
