SERVER is also used to define other variables; when I was testing your proposed change, it also changed the NBD_SWAP_SERVER variable and caused that to fail.

In my setup the server that is logged into is different from the NFS
server serving the rootfs. By default ltsp assumes those are the same,
to override one can set the SERVER variable in lts.conf.
You probably should use LDM_SERVER (or XDM_SERVER) to select the login server,
not the SERVER variable.
Well, with server you said all *_SERVER vars.
However this doesn't work. This is because in ltsp_config.d the script
01-getltscfg comes before 01-ltspconfig-cache, which means the later
will override the SERVER variable from lts.conf with a guess based on
the NFS server IP.
The solution is simple, just rename 01-ltspconfig-cache to
00-ltspconfig-cache
This may have other other unintended side-effects- I'll look into it.
Doing a simple grep, it seems that the only thing that is happening is
that in init-ltsp.d a few variables are cached and reloaded in
01-ltspconfig-cache.
It is documented everywhere that you can override these variables by
setting it in /etc/lts.conf, in the current setup you can't.
