The words you are saying say that
1) You don't understand LTSP
2) You want it working quick
3) You want to keep your existing system

Things are not going well

LTSP is complex and tricky. If I were offering advice I'd say install a recent 
UBUNTU and configure ltsp. That is easy to follow the recipe.
Then fiddle and experiment and learn.
Else take advice from someone eg k12ltsp 

Choose any 2 of the 3
