Joe,
I would use the user's .xsession file.
For group a I would still start X but not start a window manager, just
Xterm run from a script that restarts it should they close it. They
will automatically

For group a I would still start X but not start a window manager, just
Xterm run from a script that restarts it should they close it. They
will automatically be in a terminal window on the server.
For group b, start a full desktop.

Neil,
Be sure that your tftp server is using /tftpboot as its root (usually
the -s option).
For example, in Debian /var/lib/tftpboot is the default so unless you
tweak the default the client will never find /tftpboot/lts/*

Tom,
Is a user logged in? There may be something in the user's home
directory in the .xsession-error log.
Does this happen even if nobody is logged in?
What Window manager?

I don't know why your auto.misc entrie is incorrect.
The auto.misc entry should be ://ws005/drives
Assuming you mount automount under /misc/{workstation}, you would then
access your floppy at /misc/ws005/drives/floppy and your cd at
/misc/ws005/drives/cdrom

Hamish,
I have a script where in a loop it does:
DISPLAY='$i:0.0;export DISPLAY;xmessage -center -timeout 15 \
-file /etc/xmessage/message.txt
where $i = client name (i.e. ws001)

Bram,
You could launch the script from the user's .xsession file (or the
systemwide one if you want to run it for everyone) so that it executes
before the window manager.
