Here is what I've done to get USB mounting working under a debian LTSP 
server, hope this helps.

Make sure package 'ltspfs' is install on the server and 'ltspfsd' on 
the client image.
: sudo apt-get install ltspfs
: ltsp-chroot -m
: sudo apt-get install ltspfsd

Rebuild image if required.

Set the following in your lts.conf
: MOUNT_LOCAL_MEDIA=True
: LOCALDEV=TRUE

Make sure the user is part of the 'fuse' group on the server
: vim /etc/group

Reboot thin client

Insert a FAT32 USB and navigate to /media/<user> in your file manager, 
have a look around in there and see if it's mounted. By now it should 
be working.

You will sometimes need to make a link to the following in the users 
file manager
: /media/<user>

If it's a ntfs drive make sure you have the 'ntfs-3g' package installed 
in the chroot.
: apt-get install ntfs-3g

Rebuild image
