The shell of your client uses the user base in /opt/ltsp/i386, not the ones from your server. To set up a user in your /opt/ltsp/i386 directory, do "sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386". Then do a "useradd username" where username is the name of the new user you want to set up. Once this is done then reboot your client and you can log in with that username. I just set up a single admin user for using shell when needed, but if you want you could set up ldap in /opt/ltsp/i386 to pull in all users, but that should only be needed if you try to mess with local apps.
