this might not be an option for woody-based systems, but sdm and sdm-terminal are available in sarge. haven't tried porting the sdm-terminal package to LTSP, as i use it with lessdisks. with sdm, you could configure the thin client to use ssh keys for autologin. you can even configure passwordless "guest" logins to log into a different server than logins for users with passwords. normal users can log into any machine with sdm installed simply by using "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as their login. since it uses ssh to encrypt the whole session, you get secure connections between the server and terminal, though it may require faster hardware. live well, vagrant
