That's the best kind of hack. Thanks Odin.

I will do this if I cannot get sshd working. The part I did not know was

/opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/ldm/rc.d/

which I assume runs at login.

But I would still prefer using sshd because I can scp push a unique
password for each client that is not nfs exported. More secure.
