Okay, make it RCFILE_02 = "usb" ;-)

In the newer versions of K12LTSP, it is on by default in the global
section.

If you want it just for one terminal, my favorite way of doing that is
to use the MAC address for the terminal:


[00:01:02:03:04:05:06]
	RCFILE_02 = "usb"


You can also use the terminal's name or IP address, but that requires
modifying both dhcpd.conf and lts.conf. If you just you use the MAC
address in lts.conf, you don't have to modify dhcpd.conf.
