#That is, if ws004 has an IP address of 192.168.0.4 and a MAC

Only IP number is working...

You need an entry for ws004, etc in /etc/hosts to be able to use
[ws004].  Not sure about MAC address.

<cite from same file>
#  XF86CONFIG_FILE
#     If you want to create your own complete XF86Config file, you can
#do so
#     and place it in the /tftpboot/lts/ltsroot/etc directory.  Then,
#whatever
#     you decide to call it needs to be entered as a value for this
#     configuration variable.  For example:
#
#        XF86CONFIG_FILE = XF86Config.ws004
</cite>

This gives a message at boot: "XF86Config.ws004  not found"

It needs to be in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc

It is impossible to have a correct log file: if (by chance) the screen
does not turn to standby before you can read anything about the errors
found in the XF86Config file, the message on the console tells you to
look at some log files you cannot read because they are located on the
TC  and you cannot access to them locally (no key gives you access to
the local tree) nor remotely: the only open port being 6000!!!! telnet,
ssh etc. are forbidden....

So, what can I do?

In /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf add (to the global section);
SCREEN_02 = shell

When the TC boots up (and X crashes), press CTRL-ALT-F2 and you should
see a prompt.  IIRC, the Xorg log is in /var/log or /tmp.  You can
then scp it back to the main server.  There might be an easier way to
do this, but I have not discovered it yet.


One more question: at the early beginning of boot time, I have this message:

in.tftpd[5265]: tftp: client does not accept options

I do not think that is serious.

Good luck,
Chris

PS - the ltsp docs are pretty thorough, if somewhat confusing:
