I'd love to see the hack, Henry. I've been really frustrated at the rdesktop/ltsp setup.

I had to manually hack mine (4.2.3EL) because when I would run a shell on the client, the rdesktop command line (under ps) showed an extra "-U" and it would not start rdesktop. I rewrote the wrapper (to not take a parameter from the other script that calls it, so that may be where the problem really lies) and it connects now.

When I had is working, it was on screen 2. I took it off because the terminals were randomly coming up to screen 2 instead of the Linux login. I commented out screen 2. Then two days ago I put it under screen 4 and no luck. I tried moving it to screen 2. No luck. I restarted the windows and linux servers. And I am on FC5.
